Hmm. As far as I could tell, the source of `gcc -dumpmachine' and the binutils $(tooldir) comes from config.[guess|sub] unless you specify a different --target. Those scripts get their input from calling uname. So, I don't know where `gcc -dumpmachine' is getting i486-... from because it's hardcoded into the gcc binary and should match uname. What's the output of `gcc -v'? Could you maybe run the configure command again from gcc? It should say "checking host system type..." as well as target and build. For me, this says: checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu The target system type should be the same thing that eventually gets into `gcc -dumpmachine'. I don't think VM should affect this, but I could be wrong. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
