I'm hoping somebody can help as I can find no other threads relating to

*find* was OK, and Findutils seems to compile OK.  I can't see that this
is too much of a problem (it doesn't appear that this package is a
dependency for anything else) and I was thinking of ploughing on
regardless.  However, I'm concerned that it might be symptomatic of some
other unseen problem.  I did have a few failures in glibc but gcc test
results were better than the book.

Could you show the failures in glibc and findutils?

If more detailed info is required I will reply with it.  BTW I'm using
the live CD and a VIA Eden fanless m/board with 512 MB of RAM.

That's a potential issue. I believe most of the testing on the LFS
book has been done with Intel and AMD processors. I seem to recall
reading that the Eden is actually an i586, so maybe you need to employ
some workarounds. Here's something on the CLFS list that might be of
interest. I'm out of my element, though, as all the systems I've ever
used are i686.

Incidentally, what does the host say about your processor? What is the
output from cat /proc/cpuinfo? What is the output when you run
./config.guess from an autoconfed project? (libtool has a recent
version)
