Hi, I'm creating my first LFS system on Suse10.1 with book version 6.0(2nd edition). When running 'make install' for binutils-2.15.91.0.2 in chapter 5 I get the following error(s):/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file '/tools/lib/llibbfd.la' : Permission denied make[3]: ***[install_libbfd] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory '/mnt/lfs/binutils-build/bfd' make[2]: ***[install-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory '/mnt/lfs/binutils-build/bfd' make[1]: ***[install_recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/mnt/lfs/binutils-build/bfd' make: [install-bfd] Error 2 Looks like a problem accessing /tools on the host system with write permissions for user lfs To rectify this I've run: chown -R lfs /tools as root.(because someone else had a similar problem and this was recommended) Have I made a mistake? The book doesn't mention this step? Is it wrong, or was there something else I should have done to rectify the problem? Any help much appreciated Thanks RC
The book does tell you to chown $LFS/tools. Please read page 4.3. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
