Well you can at least see the mailing list archives if wanted, via lfs
website.

Check that you have done the preceding items in the page properly - incl
re the various different backslash and quote chars used.


And if that doesn't give a solution, then check similarly for any other
stuff - e.g. re-setup or re-wind to end-chapter-5 - that you have done
since a day or so back.

Bottom line: the book is there; if you follow it - and that means just what
it says - then you have a very high probability of having both a trouble-free
build and a good working system. I get the strong impression - and apols
if am wrong - that you're, one way or the other, for whatever reason(s),
not following the book: and again, 'following the book' means just that -
it doesn't mean e.g. 'do 99% correct and fup 1% of the critical foundations'
;)  . Just follow the book carefully and you really should be OK.



hth,
