Hi, hope some one can help, I have searched the web and your pages so I hope I have not missed anything obvious. I have used linux 15+ years at work and home and have had enough of distros.
I am installing LFS from a live CD version 6.2. kernel 2.6.16.38, i686 Pentium4, I am following the book exactly, but get the error below when I try make install for glibc-2.3.6 in chapter 6. I have done 2 clean re-installs and get to the same point each time which would tend to rule out an error on my part. Although not a misunderstanding by me. There is no other linux system on the machine. If I ls the /tools/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.3/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld it is found, why does it have such stange path to it? The 2 ld's in /tools exist and are the same but it should be using one in /usr? which it is not! make make check ran fine Can someone point me in the right direction please.

The script has found some problems with your installation! Please read the FAQ and the README file and check the following: - Did you change the gcc specs file (necessary after upgrading from Linux libc5)? - Are there any symbolic links of the form libXXX.so to old libraries? Links like libm.so -> libm.so.5 (where libm.so.5 is an old library) are wrong, libm.so should point to the newly installed glibc file - and there should be only one such link (check e.g. /lib and /usr/lib) You should restart this script from your build directory after you've fixed all problems! Btw. the script doesn't work if you're installing GNU libc not as your primary library! make[1]: *** [install] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/sources/glibc-2.3.6' make: *** [install] Error 2 root:/sources/glibc-build# > Thank you Matthew -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
