I have two questions. The first concerns the LiveCD. I was trying to build lfs on my elderly Toshiba laptop using the LiveCD as the host system. Net-setup would not work. I have a NetGear wireless pcmcia card. The Prism54 driver loaded, but then I got a message about firmware uploading not working. Haven't seen this since I first bought the card about a year ago. FC3 didn't like the card and it took some doing to get it configured. Is there a work-around for this? I have tried a couple of distro "livecd's" (gentoo and ubuntu) and did not a problem with the networking.

Second question: in the "adjusting the toolchain" section in chapter5, the specfile script doesn't seem to work. Not only that, but I can't seem to find any reference to the "lib/ld-linux.so.2" line in the very well hidden specs file I finally located. I suspect I did something wrong somewhere, but I can't figure out what. Any ideas? I have started over twice from the very beginning.

Thanks,
Sarah
