Re: config.guess: unable to guess system type

2010-04-27 Thread Jannis Kafkoulas
Hi Chris,

You were right!
A tragic trap:
Since I connected via ssh from one system to the lfs system, 
instead of checking the versions of the lfs system I checked the ones 
of the starting system :-(

So a few of the requiered packages were missing.

Now the Makefile was built!

Thanks very much!

Jannis

 There is no need to download any config.guess script. My
 guess is your 
 host system must be missing some program that config.guess
 needs. Did 
 you check that you have all needed packages as described on
 the Host 
 System Requirements page?
 
 Also, the Binutils source and build directories are in the
 wrong place - 
 you should be unpacking it from $LFS/sources, not $LFS. If
 you've 
 chowned $LFS to the lfs user or chmodded it to make it
 world-writable, 
 change it back. Otherwise, you had to have unpacked
 Binutils as root, 
 which you should not be doing - you must use the lfs user
 through all of 
 Chapter 5.

config.guess: unable to guess system type

2010-04-26 Thread Jannis Kafkoulas
Hi,

I'm using LFS book 6.6 and try build lfs on a debian etch.
I think I've done everything as described.

I also downloaded the newest config scripts from git.savannah.gnu.org but the 
message remains the same...

Any idea?


Thanks

checking build system type... ../binutils-2.20/config.guess: unable to guess 
system type

This script, last modified 2009-06-10, has failed to recognize
the operating system you are using. It is advised that you
download the most up to date version of the config scripts from

  
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD
and
  
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD

If the version you run (../binutils-2.20/config.guess) is already up to date, 
please
send the following data and any information you think might be
pertinent to config-patc...@gnu.org in order to provide the needed
information to handle your system.
