I am unable to get passed 6.12 Binutils due to expect -c "spawn ls" returning the "ptys error".
if the command is run on host system it succeeds. this indicates that my kernel has support. if run on host as "su lfs" it succeeds. this indicates that it is not due to permissions. if run upon entering chroot it succeeds. this indicates that /dev is mounted correctly. if run in chroot as "su binutils" it fails. (ditto if run as 'su another_user'.) I notice that when I 'su another_user' in host the resulting SHLVL is 1; however, in chroot the result is 2. This is my third attempt, thinking I had missed something, so I have scripted everything. I do not think I have missed any steps on this attempt, but I may fall short on "Package Users" Hint - prerequisite 2 ;-) Any help is appeciated thanks, Brian -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
