Hi, I am now up to section 5.7.1 where glibc2-.25 is installed. I ran the configure command and got this error:
configure: error: *** The GNU C library is currently unavailable for this platform. *** If you are interested in seeing glibc on this platform visit *** the "How to submit a new port" in the wiki: *** https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/#Development *** and join the community! I wrote i686-elf for the LFS_TGT. Does this mean that glibc does work on that platform? I tried x86_64 (even though throughout the build I have been using i686-elf) just to see if it will work. But it sill didn't. I found here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39828966/glibc-cross-compile-configure-error that glibc cannot be built for bear metal. But surely on LFS it must be. So what can I do about that error? Thank you very much, Isaac D. Cohen
