I've started again from Binutils pass 1. This time everything went fine, no errors. I'm now at 6.12. Thanks to Ken Moffat, Julio Meca Hansen & Andrew Benton for your help! I really appreciate it.

Well, I read your e-mail about 5 minutes after I had "rm -Rf *" :). So no learning what went wrong for me. Quite a stupid move because as you say, best thing to do is understand the problem. I'm definitely keeping these e-mails though! Next time I'll stick with the sources a little longer, or at least tar them up and put them on another disk. Things like ~/.bash_history would have been so useful. On Wed, 2005-07-20 at 08:24 +0100, Andrew Benton wrote: > Did you source ~/.bash_profile after you logged in as user LFS? Problem is I'm not 100% sure because I've seen to much command line the last few days :P, but I definitely thought I had. I remember trying "source --help" and "man source" (neither works) afterwards because I was curious.
