Hi,
Linux From Scratch book v. 6.1.1, chapter 5.32.1, p. 72
I am booting from and using the sources from the LFS live CD
(lfslivecd-x86-6.1.1-3.iso)
I've gotten almost all the way through ch. 6 and have run into a
problem, -- I think it has something
to do with my inexperience or not fully understanding the chroot
environment. the problem occurs
in 6.61 "Stripping Again" and in 6.62 "Cleaning Up" (pages 190-191 of
Linux From Scratch book 6.1.1.
1) Exited from chroot by issuing:
logout
2) Reentered with:
chroot $LFS /tools/bin/env -i \
HOME=/root TERM=$TERM PS1='\u:\w\$ ' \
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin \
/tools/bin/bash --login
3) With (2) above, I encountered the first problem - I received a
message that
/tools/bin/env does not exist. So I checked the $LFS variable with:
echo $LFS
It was no longer set, so I reset it with:
export LFS =/mnt/lfs
checked it with:
echo $LFS
and received: /mnt/lfs
After that, step (2) above worked fine.
4) On to part 6.62 "Cleaning Up." I exited and reentered the the
chroot
environment using the modified command specified in the book (p.191):
chroot $LFS /usr/bin/env -i \
HOME=/root TERM="$TERM" PS1='\u:\w\$ ' \
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin \
/bin/bash --login
This time, I received another "not found" error for /usr/bin/env. So I
checked
/mnt/lfs/usr/bin and, of course, discovered that env was missing. (It
is, however, in
/usr/bin/, but not in /mnt/lfs/usr/bin). As mentioned, I am booting
from and using the
source files from the lfslivecd-x86-6.1.1-3.iso.
5) What to do? I am concerned that I may have installed all the
programs from the wrong
environment. This is just a guess, as I am really new to this. I
would hate to
turn back now. Is there anything I can do?
Also - thanks for the help in my first problem at the end of ch. 5
regarding the
missing perl and pod2man files.
