Hi Ken,

the story is a little complicated. I finished my LFS-8.3  with some 
dificulties building Linux-4.18.5. ( make menuconfig did'nt start at all )
So I decided to take the lfskernel and System.map from my LFS-8.1 
(linux-4.12.7 ) to start booting anyway my new LFS-8.3.
To my surprise, the system did not boot at all, with very strange 
messages concerning the partition "/dev/sdb4" (  xfs ) like partition 
corrupted or cannot find the partition etc. At this point I decided to 
mount my LFS-8.1 system on this partition, and LFS-8.1 booted without 
problems. So, I  started copying the directories from the new LFS-8.3 to 
the old LFS-8.1 and booting in between. During this procedure I had not 
yet copied the libelf files ( libelf-0.173.s0, libelf.a, libelf.so and 
libelf.so.1 ) to /usr/lib, with the mentioned results.


BTW, my LFS-8.3, constructed in this very unusual way, is now working as 
expected !


I hope this information can be usefull !

Kind regards,
Edgar

Thanks for coming back.  I did not think that anything would be
linked to libelf, so can you be more-specific about what you had
moved, please, so we can save the information for the next time ?

Glad you are now sorted.

hi Kenn,

/tools is not more present in my LFS. I did ./configure on "lynx2-8-8" 
and I got
"checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler 
cannot create executables"
So I started to look for libelf, as you wrote, and voila, I found that 
for some reasons I had moved this files from the original place. After 
putting them back, the compiler started working normal.


Thank you very much for your help. Without your hint , I would probably 
not found how to proceed !


Kind regards,
Edgar
