I'm trying to cross-rebuild one of my older versions of LFS (6.6) for an old i586 box. I'm in trouble. I'm 74+ and this may be my "swan song"--not so long ago I could do this, but now I seem to be stuck in a "Hall of Mirrors" I used to know my way through, unable to "keep all the balls in the air", to mix metaphors.
Anyway, when I finish Ch 5, as becomes apparent when I adjust the toolchain in Ch 6, the /tools/ld SEARCH_DIR has /tools/[host-triplet]. I think it should be the target-triplet. I don't think it would be a problem in the final install, because I don't expect anything that host-triplet to be findable. I've tried starting over, checking everything is as in the book, but it's still the same, and I don't want to waste my time and effort building a broken Ch6! I just did start over and stopped at the end of Ch5 this time. Any idea what I could've done wrong, or whether it IS safe to proceed? -- Paul Rogers paulgrog...@fastmail.fm Rogers' Second Law: "Everything you do communicates."
