ever had a look at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter04/aboutlfs.html the "$LFS" variable is used exactly to circumvent any problems with custom pathes for the tools directory. just the last branch "tools" is fixed. i myself never usede "/mnt/lfs", but i can live with the "tools" in my prefered location. tobias -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
