Hi, I'm up to the end of section 5.7.1 and everything compiled successfully. The book now says to do a "sanity check" to see if all is working out. It doesn't say in what directory to do it,
It doesn't matter as long as lfs user has write permissions in that directory.

figured it must mean /tools/bin. So I went to /tools/bin and tried compiling the test file (dummy.c) and it failed with the following error: /media/isaac/LFS/Programs/Compiler/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-lfs-linux- gnu/6.3.0/../../../../x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory
This usually comes from having /tools point to the wrong place.
Btw /tools is a symbolic link to /media/isaac/LFS/Programs/Compiler. I'm not sure if this is really a problem or did I just do the test in the wrong directory. If it is a real problem what does it mean?
Until you understand what is going on, do not deviate from the book. You should have:
