My point is "don't continue blindly if any problem occurs". Building LFS is like building a house. If a brick has some deficiency and we just stack other bricks onto it blindly, the house will collapse. OTOH "don't blindly follow online posts" is also correct. LFS is different from normal building procedure and many online posts are based on earlier version of LFS (like 6.x or 5.x) which are outdated. And, some posters are irresponsible and often post some stupidly wrong information, just misleading others. > That's pretty much right. I will add to the second item "for the first > time through".

But that > can get users into trouble, If you deviate from the book, you should know what you are doing. Missing $LFS_TGT-gcc is absolutely incorrect. Using dash instead of bash is likely incorrect （though we didn't tried, recently). --with-glibc-version=2.30 (instead of 2.11) is likely correct. -- Xi Ruoyao <[email protected]> School of Aerospace Science and Technology, Xidian University -- 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.
