Hi Thanks all for the replays. I am trying to create a cross compiler using the steps for building LFS when the temporary tools are build. Those steps should allow me to use the cross compiler, but obviously i am not doing something correctly. I just used the path from cross-tools package 0.43 but not using anything from there. One reason for which i am trying to create the cross compiler, is that i saw you build for LFS gcc 4.8.2 and glibc-2.19, which are not supported anymore by that tool or others.
This are the steps is used. I didnt created a lfs user, but if you think thats the cause of the problem i can create it and try that way as well. The host is x86_64 with kernel 3.7.10 I have a symlink between: ls -ld /tools lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 47 Apr 17 08:08 /tools -> /home/marian/crosstool/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/ export PREFIX=/home/marian/crosstool/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu export TARGET=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu export SYSROOT=/home/marian/crosstool/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/sys-root export PATH=/tools/bin:/bin:/usr/bin 1. Binutils ../binutils-2.24/configure --prefix=/tools --with-sysroot=$SYSROOT --with-lib-path=/tools/lib --target=$TARGET --disable-nls --disable-werror binutils compiles fine. no errors. 2. Kernel headers make headers_check make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=dest headers_install cp -rv dest/include/* /tools/include 3. From some other docs i saw they install the glibc headers as well here. I have tried this, but the same error is happening when building gcc or glibc. System glibc headers mkdir glibc-build cd glibc-build ../glibc-2.19/configure --prefix=/tools --host=$TARGET --build=$(../glibc-2.19/scripts/config.guess) --disable-profile --enable-kernel=2.6.32 --with-headers=/tools/include libc_cv_forced_unwind=yes libc_cv_ctors_header=yes libc_cv_c_cleanup=yes --without-selinux make -k install-headers install_root=/ 4. GCC stage 1 ../gcc-4.8.2/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix=/tools --with-sysroot=$SYSROOT --with-newlib --without-headers --with-local-prefix=/tools --with-native-system-header-dir=/tools/include --disable-nls --disable-shared --disable-multilib --disable-decimal-float --disable-threads --disable-libatomic --disable-libgomp --disable-libitm --disable-libmudflap --disable-libquadmath --disable-libsanitizer --disable-libssp --disable-libstdc++-v3 --enable-languages=c,c++ --with-mpfr-include=$(pwd)/../gcc-4.8.2/mpfr/src --with-mpfr-lib=$(pwd)/mpfr/src/.libs Here if i use make, i get the same error, that compiler can not create executables. From config log, the error is that cross gcc is not able to find a couple of libs (which seems generated by glibc) crt1.o, crti.o, crtn.o and libc.so Thus from other docs i have seen these being used, so i have tried to continue using them: make all-gcc make all-target-libgcc make install-gcc make install-target-libgcc 5. building glibc fails building in sunrpc folder, for some rpc_* files, with the same same error, saying that those libs can not be found. ../glibc-2.19/configure --prefix=/tools --host=$TARGET --build=$(../glibc-2.19/scripts/config.guess) --disable-profile --enable-kernel=2.6.32 --with-headers=/tools/include libc_cv_forced_unwind=yes libc_cv_ctors_header=yes libc_cv_c_cleanup=yes --without-selinux -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
