[lfs-support] TLDP LFS Guide
I've started trying to use LFS 7.4. As usual with these things, I took a tangent and went looking for Internet references outside of www.LinuxFromScratch.org. Does anyone within the LFS project maintain The Linux Documentation Project LFS Guide, http://www.tldp.org/guides.html#lfs or is that done by someone attached to TLDP? TLDP's information is out-of-date. It refers to version 6.1.1.

It's a _long_ while since I last built clfs x86_64-64 and many things have changed, but the main difference is that clfs still uses a specfile - their build is now quite different from how LFS has evolved. If you do something like that, then yes, a few _blfs_ packages will probably get confused by the absence of /lib64. OTOH, you would get a nice clean system - but the build for x86_64 will be somewhat different from what is currently in LFS. I've a feeling that someone, perhaps our late colleague Andy, used to build 64-bit LFS without the symlink - but I've no idea of the details about how to do it (and that was before libstdc++ and g++ became required for building gcc, so the details would have to change for gcc-4.8).

Re: [lfs-support] lfs 7.4 / Section 6 - Building the LFS System as sudo?
Hello, On Ubuntu and Mint, I found out that if you run: sudo passwd root And set the password, you can run "su - root" and login as root. I do this as one of the first things when setting up a Ubuntu or Mint system because I cannot stand sudo. Hope this helps!

[lfs-support] lfs 7.4 / Section 6 - Building the LFS System as sudo?
Hello all -- Thanks to the help I have received here or elsewhere, I have made it as far as section III in the online instructions: "Building the LFS System". I am using Linux Mint 15 as my host computer which only allows me to "sudo" before commands. I cannot log in as root (to my knowledge). The instructions at the end of section 5 state: "The commands in the remainder of this book must be performed while logged in as user root and no longer as user lfs. Also, double check that $LFS is set in root's environment." Is it sufficient to sudo before every command in the rest of the book, or do I need to find a way to log in as the user "root"?

The normal place for bash is /bin because in the case of a separate /usr partition it will not be available.

I wouldn't be suprised if some packages that assume a multilib system use that value to insist on /lib64 or /usr/lib64. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
[lfs-support] LFS-7.4
Is it possible to build LFS-7.4 on x86_64 without the /lib64 symlink? I have tried to do so but libstd++ in the chapter 5 tool chain dies. I would like to build for x86_64 and have the same filesystem layout that i686 has ie without the lib64 directories -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

I'm trying to understand why this is considered such an important thing, why it comes up again and again as a source of anger and frustration. In fifteen years of using Linux, I've seen few developments attract such heated reaction (the only one that comes to mind was Mono)- and I don't understand why that's the case.
