I didn't say it wasn't a good practice. A cross toolchain can mean many different things. Since the book doesn't do what you wanted to achieve, you have adapted it. No problem. People who follow *all* of the book can build the first part on one machine, then copy /tools to the target machine, and either boot or chroot to build the final system. When copying to the destination machine, the contents of /cross-tools are *not* needed. Hope this clearifies what the trunk book is intended for. ĸen -- After tragedy, and farce, "OMG poneys!" -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
