No it wasn't. First, the only ownership/permissions that need to be changed are what the book says to. Second, if it was $LFS/tools it simply means you skipped over something else, but your problem had nothing to do with $LFS/tools since it was a permissions issue while *building* Binutils, before it even needs to look at $LFS/tools. Therefore, that problem wasn't really fixed. Besides, if you "need" to change permissions on anything else, it's because you have missed something in the book. The real solution to the problem with Binutils is to follow the book's instructions and start from the source directory before typing anything on the page. > > Did you remember to > mv -v mpfr-2.4.1 mpfr after unpacking mpfr _inside_ the directory where > the gcc source code is unpacked? > > The same for gmp > mv -v gmp-4.3.1 gmp > > rblythe > > Sorry about the subject line, and when i unpack, im still in the > previous directory, the binutils build one, so hopefully thats problem > solved, thanks, > Hamish > And that's another problem in itself. I repeat yet again, read page 5.3. Specifically, the binutils-build directory should no longer even exist when you start on GCC. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
