I've made some progress. My problem was getting libc.so.6 from the glibc archive and not /lib64 Turns out that libc.so is not a library but a linker script. libc.so was being picked up from the glibc archive so I changed the location of the files specified in that script to be the glibc archive and bingo it works. These lines come from dummy.log: attempt to open /home/john/lfs/glibc/glibc/usr/lib/crtn.o succeeded /home/john/lfs/glibc/glibc/usr/lib/crtn.o ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 needed by /home/john/lfs/glibc/glibc/usr/lib/libc.so.6 found ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 at /home/john/lfs/glibc/glibc/usr/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 Nice :) (that's not from dummy.log - that's from me :)) jb. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
