I'm trying to build my first LFS and I keep wondering if I'm doing this right. This is what I'm trying to do with my LFS:- Create a Linux image that supports up to i586 processor to test software that can only run on the i586. We're trying to test an image that does not have MMX/SSE instructions. I have gotten up to step 5.9 (Binutils Pass 2). That's when I see that after I run the "make install" a "i686-lfs-linux-gnu" folder shows up under "/tools/bin" of my LFS partition. So, I'm wondering if this step is missing the "--target=i586-lfs-linux-gnu" in order to properly install the new binaries in the "i586-lfs-linux-gnu" sub-folder.
I can't help with that, but the 586 is pretty old. It was released 20 years ago. I don't know if the packages today are compatible with something that old.
