No, it supports all the most recent versions. At least 6.5 and later. > I've read all the documentation on jhalfs that I could find and there > are some things that I'd like to clear up. > > 1. cd to jhalfs directory and <sudo make> ? Just make. It asks for sudo when it needs it. Put the jhalfs code into your home directory. Make sure /mnt/lfs only has a populated /sources to start. Then cd /mnt/lfs/jhalfs and 'make' from there. > 2.

How does jhalfs handle test failures? Does it stop for investigation? Generally it just keeps going. You can watch /mnt/lfs/jhalfs/logs while building and also /mnt/lfs/jhalfs/test-logs while Chapter 6 is building. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
