I wouldn't bother with Chapter 5. Just enter chroot and follow the instructions in Chapter 6. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
Re: [lfs-support] How to upgrade a single package?
Hi, Chris: I understand now.. The reason why I'm asking this question is because yesterday I was preparing the tools in Chapter 5 using coreutils-8.19, but today, the SVN manual has already been changed to coreutils-8.20 , however, I still haven't finished chapter 6 yet... But, I guess I got what you mean . I found release 7.2 which is also using coreutils-8.19. I may be able to continue and finish building the whole system first, before upgrading coreutils-8.19 to 8.20 ...

You can't even get a basic LFS system built right, you don't have any hope of successfully upgrading anything. Further, you've asked one question ("how to upgrade a package") that's answered in the FAQ, and another ("how to re-enter chroot") that's answered in the book itself. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
[lfs-support] How to upgrade a single package?
Hi, all: sorry for my naive question again. I now noticed coreutils has been upgraded from 8.19 to 8.20 . I'd love to upgrade it without rebuilding everything from scratch, but just this single package. I can always chroot into the environment required by chapter 6, but how can I re-enter chapter 5 to prepare the tools coreutils using version 8.20 rather than version 8.19 ?
