I would think that would work.

Translating the above path:
/tools/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld can't find the libraries in /tools/lib
Use /tools/sbin/ldconfig -v 2/dev/null | grep -v ^$'\t'
to see what paths the linker is searching.
So I went back to LFS 7.3 and rebuild the Linux Headers there: no problem!!
So what is wrong with a simple copy of the tools?
Don't know, but the first thing I'd do after entering chroot would be to do:
echo 'main(){}' dummy.c
gcc dummy.c
readelf -l a.out | grep ': /tools'
rm dummy.c a.out

Re: [lfs-support] ABOUT LFS
I think you need to learn about the bash shell, especially startup files. I suggest that you begin with this from chapter 3 of Beyond LFS: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/postlfs/profile.html There you will find where to put things like environment variables and aliases. Take it slowly: the examples given are quite sophisticated. If you still have your host system around, have a look at the versions of the files supplied by it. When I looked at my host I discovered that halt and restart were aliases (in /etc/bashrc). So the line alias halt='shutdown -h now' was in /etc/bashrc. I slow, methodical trawl through all the Bash files, and a bit of head-scratching over the difference between login and non-login shells, will work wonders for your understanding of Linux. You might also find https://shreevatsa.wordpress.com/2008/03/30/zshbash-startup-files-loading-order-bashrc-zshrc-etc/ useful - many of my beginning students had the first diagram open most of the day!

It means there was at least one error in the gcc testsuite. Libitm was the last subdirectory in which check ran, but the error(s) could be in any of the subdirectories. But you have already reported the errors and got a response from Bruce. What is your problem ? Is it the wording Target 'check'not remade because of errors.? That's just how the gcc testsuite works : the Makefiles list targets for check (e.g. do-check) and in normal 'make' style they have to be updated if any dependency changed. But this doesn't happen if you had an error (if it did, I guess that 'make check' would loop for ever). ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Every alternative method has its own advantages an disadvantages. Also, the /tools part of the PATH should be unnecessary after you have completed chapter 6 of LFS. If you need to go back in to chroot to edit some files, chroot /mnt/lfs should work fine - if it doesn't, you've got other problems. In any case, why would you prefer to run the programs from /tools/sbin in preference to /sbin or /usr/sbin ? - hint: a program will be run from the first directory which contains a program of that name. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

That means anyone who has write access to /tmp can shutdown or reboot but I'm the only user.
