Well, doing some more internet searches and having the time to compile
again... (1 SBU is 34 secs for me) gave me this:
On the second pass of GCC the variables being set and the
configuration script needed to be on one line for it to work properly.
It would be nice to have it say right at that part: This next snippet
of code must all be on one line, or else you will have to start over.
Thank you for your time in this.
Whenever a line ends with a \ it means that the code on the next line is
a part of the first line.
Excerpt from:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/prologue/typography.html
In some cases, a logical line is extended to two or more physical
lines with a backslash at the end of the line.
CC="gcc -B/usr/bin/" ../binutils-2.18/configure \ --prefix=/tools
--disable-nls --disable-werror
Note that the backslash must be followed by an immediate return.
Other whitespace characters like spaces or tab characters will
create incorrect results.
All Code Blocks are written so they can be easily read, and can be
copy'pasted directly from the webpage to the console.
Best regards
