Really ? It should be in /bin. That in itself is enough for it to
not be found - it's a user tool, for general use when searching
files and running scripts.
Copying grep to /bin fixed the problem.
After initially finding grep (as per your suggestion) in /sbin I copied
it to /bin Tuesday, logged in as lfs and checked /lfs/tools, only to
again find it empty. So, while having grep in /sbin also seemed
problematic to me, I assumed there were additional problems resulting in
an empty /lfs/tools. I then successfully built 8.1 using an ISO
distribution and my scripts. Hmm ...
So today I retried compiling 8.1 with my 8.0 distribution and
binutils-pass1 compiled successfully. I noticed ls shows nothing in
/lfs/tools until binutils-pass1 has been compiled. Is that right?
I now seem to be compiling packages successfully using my 8.0 build.
I've no idea how grep got in /sbin but I'll certainly check its location
after finishing 8.1. And I also have no idea about xpg4. That may have
been something I did after building BLFS. I've done nothing with
Solaris. I'll check for xpg4 after compiling BLFS 8.1.
