Contents of Linux-Libc-Headers-2.6.12.0 - 'permission denied' problem

2006-07-24 Thread david cuthbertson 
Hi,
I am using the x86-6.2-pre5 of official LFS LiveCD (it has nvidia graphics 
support). As a beginner I have been following the instructions to the letter - 
only improvising when instructions are absent, such as where I should be 
unpacking and configuring, etc. - though after a bit of reading (and trial and 
error) I thought it was going ok. However, on reaching section 6.7.2  - 
contents of Linux-Libc-Headers - I have a problem that so far doesn't want to 
go away!
On entering the line:

/usr/include/{asm,linux}/*.h

I receive the output:

bash: /usr/include/asm/8253pit.h: Permission denied

The file and directory permissions appear to be as expected:

drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jul 23 16:25 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 159 Jul 23 16:36 82353pit.h
etc...

Any ideas?
Cheers,
David

/usr/include/{asm,linux}/*.h is not a command. It is simply a 
description of what's installed. Please read the book more carefully.

Re: LFS 6.1.1 Chapter 6 Findutils make check errors

Could you show the failures in glibc and findutils?
 

Thanks for all your help.  I'm away until Wednesday but, Dan, I have 
already posted the glibc test failures in the April 2006 archives. You 
can see them there.  I stripped out some of the obvious ones like the 
maths test and left the ones that I could find no reference to anywhere.



We had this on CLFS at one time, when we were building in a
slightly different order than LFS.  Our xargs failures were because
/bin/echo didn't exist, and the locate failure seems to have been
related to 'sort' - I think the installed script was using
/tools/bin/sort (ouch!), but the tests used /usr/bin/sort.

Our problem was because we built coreutils too late, but it only
came to light with findutils-4.2.25 which has rewritten tests.  Are
you perhaps using newer versions of some of the packages ?
 

Ken, although I have followed the book to the letter and already have 
coreutils successfully installed and tested, the findutils test failures 
do seem to point to an incorrect path.  All the failures in both xargs 
and locate were accompanied by the *no such file or directory* message.


When I return on Wednesday I will post the findutils error messages, and 
apply some of your suggestions.


Thanks again.

Richard
