On the topic of building directly from Windows, has anyone tried building through Cygwin? I imagine if you installed the extfs tools and a cross-compiler, it could be done. This would be useful because one would no longer need to take the sometimes lengthy step of downloading and burning an ISO to a USB/CD, and would also save an (obviously small) amount of money, as no disc would be needed. -pixelherodev -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
