Hi, Edgar. We had a similar report last month. Thread from this problem starts at http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/lfs-support/2018-September/052401.html but I don't think we got any conclusion. He had at least one earlier problem, but we never heard if he eventually succeeded. From my comments at http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/lfs-support/2018-September/052409.html it seems his toolchain was broken. Bruce suggested this was due either to missing a package (all worked fine when /tools was on the PATH, but not afterwards), or something when wrong in adjusting the toolchain. All I can suggest for a first step is: change your PATH so that /tools is not on it, and try to untar and configure a small package (one which uses configure, obviously). If that reports that the C compiler cannot create executables then one of those suggestions seems to apply. (We know that until the end of chapter 6 the compiler was apparently working). OTOH, if without /tools you can still configure and compile then I don't know. ĸen -- Is it about a bicycle ? -- 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.
