This is not good, though not likely the cause of the problem you are seeing. You should be using 2.6.22.19. The latest 2.6.22.x should be safe as far as kernel headers and udev are concerned. I forget what the kernel requirement for the next problematic udev was (dont' even remember what udev version it was), but it would *probably* be safe up until that version. Fuzzy 2.6.25.4 comes to mind for some reason, but if you don't need features from that version to be known in glibc (you likely do not), then use the 2.6.22.19 version to build the system. You can upgrade the kernel after the fact. > I am either reading the book incorrectly or I am finding flaws in > the flow of the material in the book.

No. I never meant to imply that there was _missing _information, 'out of sync' information, or missing instructions. All the needed information _is_ there, like the example you showed the other day, some of it could probably be presented better to assist people who are unfamiliar with the build process. If there were any missing information, devs would be having a heck of a time, as even automated, we build by extracting the book's commands verbatim. -- DJ Lucas -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
