I see 3 problems here... 1. The LFS book does not say to create gcc-build before unpacking the source tarball. Seems you need to take a close look at page 5.3, in particular the very last "Note" there - it says that you are to unpack the source tarball, cd into the created directory, *then* follow the instructions on the page. 2. The gcc-build directory is not in $LFS/sources, so that means that either you have become root (or used sudo) to create it, or you have chowned/chmodded $LFS, neither of which you should be doing. If you did this because you were getting permissions errors attempting to create gcc-build, see #1 above that will solve that issue. Also, do not use root/sudo at any point in Chapter 5 until you are told to, and if you did chown/chmod $LFS, change it back (owned by root, 755 permissions). 3. You forgot --prefix on that configure command. That would explain the permission errors on make install. I don't recognize the particular error you are getting and don't know whether it's related to any of the above issues, but the fact that you did miss those is an indicator that you do need to read a bit more closely. The compile errors you are getting are likely due to some other detail you've overlooked. Remove the GCC source and build dirs and try again, this time reading more slowly and carefully. If that still doesn't work, rm -rf /tools/* and go back to the beginning of Chapter 5. > > If I try to do a "make install", I get the following: > > l...@carina:/mnt/lfs/gcc-build/gcc-4.4.3$ make install > make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/lfs/gcc-build/gcc-4.4.3' > /bin/bash ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local /usr/local > make[2]: Entering directory > `/mnt/lfs/gcc-build/gcc-4.4.3/host-i686-pc-linux-gnu/fixincludes' > rm -rf /usr/local/libexec/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/4.4.3/install-tools > /bin/bash ../.././fixincludes/../mkinstalldirs > /usr/local/libexec/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/4.4.3/install-tools > mkdir -p -- /usr/local/libexec/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/4.4.3/install-tools > mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/libexec': Permission denied > make[2]: *** [install] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory > `/mnt/lfs/gcc-build/gcc-4.4.3/host-i686-pc-linux-gnu/fixincludes' > make[1]: *** [install-fixincludes] Error 2 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/gcc-build/gcc-4.4.3' > make: *** [install] Error 2 Obviously make install won't work if make has errors. > > > Can anyone shed some light on this for me? > > Thanks in advance. > > John Stephens > Bruce is right about gawk, and more generally that you have missed a page about Host System Requirements. I don't believe it affects GCC, but it does need to be addressed as otherwise it will cause problems later. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
