Well, it should be. The trunk branch may be broken, especially due to recent script adjustments, so there is that. Also, trunk is targeted for LFS trunk, so the kernel requirement would be a bit stringent. > Please update your host kernel to version 2.6.12.3. > make: *** [test-host] Error 1 Yes, this is because of Xorg - it likes to be built on a machine with the same kernel version as the target machine. Read the BLFS page for Xorg. > So I'm going to have to build something with a newer kernel than what the > LiveCD has on tap -- will a *newer* kernel work, or should I grab 2.6.12.3? You need to have a *matching* kernel version. However, if you're building for a 6.1-3 iso, you're not going to want to use trunk. The 6.1-2 livecd should work fine as a host, because the 6.1-3 iso will still be using the same LFS base versions. You need to grab the 6.1-2 tagged scripts from svn: svn co svn://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/livecd/x86/tags/6.1-2 lfs-livecd > If I could get the build process functioning, I'd be happy to build the > .iso once everything's finalized... Thanks. :) However, I like to do that personally as just one more step in quality assurance. Nothing personal at all. > Sheesh... first Makefiles, then SVN, now you want me to learn bugzilla > *too*?
