No, you have misunderstood. If you type _everything_ from 'case' through to 'esac' your configuparms file will either contain CFLAGS += -march=i486 -mtune=native (no quotes, no other text) or it will be empty (on x86_64). The case statement , along with the 'uname' in back-ticks, is to be interpreted by the shell. 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
