Have run into difficulty trying to install binutils at the start of LFS
chapter 5. I spent the last two days slowly re-reading up to chapter
five, googling around, and correcting any mistakes I found, but to no
avail. I found plenty online close to describing my specific symptoms,
but nothing that exactly addressed it, or enabled me to figure the
problem out.
First here is the terminal output where I encounter the problem:
!Y+lfs@kali:/mnt/sda7/sources/binutils-2.27/build$ ../configure
--prefix=/tools \

configure: error: in `/mnt/sda7/sources/binutils-2.27/build':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
What does this give you on the host?
$ cat > hello.c << EOF
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello World\n");
return 0;
}
EOF
$ gcc -o hello hello.c
$ ./hello
