glibc requires GCC 4.4, and it must be built for i686. My build command
reflects these changes:
CFLAGS=-march=i686 make -j 4 CC=gcc44 iso
Build continues until I get to DOSEMU, where the build fails. According
to the research I've done, it seems that DOSEMU

Anyway, a transition of some kind is needed.
Maybe, just copy install.pl out of dosbin into linuxboot.
Leave the dosbin/install.pl alone
and continue working on the linuxboot one.

Hello,
Building unattended from linuxboot/Makefile has the following troubles:
* slang/libslang.a need stage1/lib/libdl.so to be (already) present
* pciutils/lspci is built against kernel of host system, not with building
env.
* dosemu does not use slang from build environment
with no problem whatsoever, so I am pretty sure that the file
permissions are right.
My guess now is that the problem reside on the fact that this file is
longer than 8 Characters, but I am a bit surprise that this is
happening as one of the features of dosemu 1.4 was the support
