I've finished building my new lfs as per the book above. I didn't find
any major problems.
I just found a couple of minor things.
1. Section 6.12, p. 4. The link to the gcc build log is broken. Also,
I wonder if that sed is really needed to add -fomit-frame-pointer to the
gcc build. Isn't the final pass compiled with -g -O2, and doesn't
-O-anything imply -fomit-frame-pointer?
2. 6.23, p. 1. A typo in the first paragraph.
3. 7.13.1. A minor point, but the description of the finding in
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules did not match what I found.
What I found was a single line (other than comments) that assigned a
name (eth0) by MAC address. Also, in this same section there is a typo
(I think). Anyhow, my rule looks like this.
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:00:00:00:00:00",
NAME="eth0"
note: the MAC is actually my mac, not all 0s. My network works fine.
Anyway, my build was successful. And just like the last time I read the
book, I learned lots. Going through the book again after 1 year, I was
able to reinforce what I had learned last year.
Good work gentlemen, and thanks for your hard work so that I can learn.
Shawn
