I had the same problem because the LiveCD I made in mid-December was for LFS-6.1(.0) and provided perl-5.8.6, but I downloaded the LFS book v6.1.1, which had me install Ch5 as though it was 5.8.7. Internal files had directory pointers to 5.8.6, which didn't exist. All I had to do was move the /lib/perl/perl5.8.7 to /lib/perl/perl5.8.6 and installation proceeded. Check that out, maybe you're the third guy with this same problem in the past few weeks. >Aside from that... I'm running out of guesses and it's looking like >I'm going to have to start over.

The more files/directories the more time. Strictly speaking, if you're sure you know where an installation is going to put things then you can have it watch only those directories. >Now I have a question (maybe a dumb one ?)

But seriously, I'm running with a P1-233 and I don't find the time that onerous. Paul Rogers ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.xprt.net/~pgrogers/ Rogers' Second Law: "Everything you do communicates."
