For x86_64, you're best off following the CLFS book. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/cross-lfs/ However, I think both posters problems are related to the libc used on FC4. I wish I could say what the problem is, but it appears that building binutils-2.15.94.0.2.2 against the libc in FC4 won't work. When the new ld just built is called (/tools/bin/ld), it says it can't understand libc.so. The best solution I can think of is either * Use a known good host like the LFS LiveCD or * Build the LFS SVN book: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/ I'm fairly certain that the binutils in that book (binutils-2.16.1) will build against FC4 because one of the editors of BLFS has an entire class of kids building LFS from FC4. If you're scared of using the development version, I would suggest the first solution. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
