You should have gone to LFS 2.1.5 rather than using 2.0 which was never releeased. The build process is way different than it was in 3.0. Your host needs the required versions. Back then gcc 2.95.2 or 2.95.3 was standard in distros. Choose your distro carefully. You will get to a point where gcc3 won't build a certain LFS version, then you'll get to the point where distros moved to gcc3 and then LFS had a bunch of patches. Then you will get to a point where distros started using gcc4 and then there was a huge endeavor in LFS to port gcc3 code to gcc4 and thus a lot of patches. After that it cooled down a bit. Read carefully about the build process. It changes between 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, and 6.0, and 7.0 Sincerely, William HarringtonHi All;William, I had over the weekend, printed up the first sections of versions 2.4 3.0 4.0 and 5.0, And am looking thru them as needed.. I did find many changed thru the various versions.. Which makes the entire trip more interesting, trying to get an old version to work and to maybe actually understand what all is happening.. Of Course to fully do that I could need to go back to Linux 1.0, Which, I have a copy of.. I have never compiled it nor tried it.. And I am mainly using 2.4 now, instead of 2.0-pre1, that I had before.. So once Ken got me straightened out, things are flying right again..THANK YOU Marty BlackBerry® 10 Get the latest details on the new BlackBerry 10 smartphone. http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3131/51ad30b1751fb30b15e64st04duc-- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

I put the regular paths ahead of the ones you showed me for /bin and /usr/bin.. And now Glibc is back to doing what it wants to do.. I also had to use gcc-2.95.3 instead of gcc-2.95.2, something in my version wasn't working.. But, at that time it could have been the PATH limitations.. Who knows.. So, THANK YOU Marty Weird but easy Use this simple trick to collect silver from practically any bank http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3131/51ad2e5056e522e507fedst02duc-- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
