I sugguest adding a note in SBU section such as: the test time should
be included into SBU measure in Chapter 6 if the package has a testsuite
and shouldn't be included into SBU measure in Chapter 5 anyway.
Although it will not affect us to make a working LFS without the
changing on wording.
The SBU measure is a very rough'n'ready type thing. One should not
expect that one can run the build on something which takes 2 SBU and
from that know how long, to the minute, another package taking 2 SBU
will take. It depends on how much swapping takes place, how much RAM
you have, how fast your discs are relative to your processor, what
bus speeds you have, etc., and two packages with identical SBU measures
are not going to take identical amounts of time.
Until today, I haven't reached the jhalfs. But thanks your information
anyway.
JHALFS is not part of LFS, it's part of meta-LFS.

Compilation problem for binutils
hi , i've just started my lfs adventure , but unfortunately got a problem right from the start . i'm following lfs book version 6.3 . I'm on chapter 5.3.1 - installation of binutils . I first installed binutils and it was okey . after that when i try recompile ld with LIB_PATH=/tools/lib , i get error . help me on this guys .. i use ubuntu 10.04 (if dat can be of ny help ) . but in version 6.6 of the book , the ld is not recompiled as i see it . isn't it necessary to change the library search path ?

Yes, it's been a while, hasn't it :-)
That font is implemented in ROM inside the graphics controller, not
the BIOS. To get access to it, one simply has to command the controller
to use it. If one does that, the boot screen content usually magically
reappears, unless one also switches to a different RAM page for display,
or if some frame buffer mode was used during boot.
Ok, so that stuff is on the video card, not the motherboard?
It's inside the video processor itself, usually. Whether that be mounted
on the MB or on a separate card it's not part of the BIOS (EE)ROM.
Nevertheless, the point was more to do with the two ways of talking to
that controller - either by treating it as an modern NVidia card (as
Nouveau does), or as an antique VGA chip (as the BIOS does). And the
latter isn't consistent with Nouveau's purpose in providing the former.
Apparently, it's the stated non-goal to support switching back
by the authors (or at least owners) of the driver.
So, unless he's willing to get the source for the driver, and
rewrite portions of it himself, there's not going to be a way
to go back.
The kinds of technique of installing special fonts is the only
reasonably easy way forward toward his goal. Even then, the
boot messages aren't going to come back, unless he writes some
special driver code to read the RAM for the text page(s) which
contain them, and then issue commands to redraw the active
graphics page that content using the appropriate font.
None of this seems worth the effort, to me. However, it's not
my system nor my time.

Re: Compilation problem for binutils
Hi , thanks 4 the replies . I used version 6.3 of the book coz the livecds of lfs contained only packages for version 6.3 of the book . since version 6.6 uses newer versions of packages and livecd with all the required packages are not available , i would have to download each package separately . dats y i opted ver 6.3 . If there is a livecd compatible with version 6.6 of the book , pls let me know . I didn't find one in http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/livecd/download.html however . all the images in there were for ver 6.3 of de book .

I'm on chapter 5.3.1 - installation of binutils . I first installed binutils and it was okey . after that when i try recompile ld with LIB_PATH=/tools/lib , i get error . help me on this guys .. i use ubuntu 10.04 (if dat can be of ny help ) . but in version 6.6 of the book , the ld is not recompiled as i see it . isn't it necessary to change the library search path ? I tried the following and i got error make -C ld clean make -C ld LIB_PATH=/tools/lib this is the error i get : make: Entering directory `/home/jacsparrow/LINUX_FROM_SCRATCH/sources/binutils-build/ld' There are several issues here. First, virtually nobody remembers details from lfs 6.3. That was released in 2007. The current version is 6.6. Second, you are building on /home/jacsparrow/LINUX_FROM_SCRATCH/sources/, but that will cause you problems when you get to Chapter 6. You will not be able to access the sources when you chroot to /mnt/lfs/. Put the sources in /mnt/lfs/sources and build from there. Third, make sure you've got all the packages you need as specified in the Host System Requirements. There are several changes needed in most Ubuntu systems. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page -- Yours Truly , SreeHari www.twitter.com/Sree_Hari Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.

The 6.3 LiveCD should be compatible with building version 6.6.

That's true. It won't prevent you from using the LiveCD to do
the build.
