That suggests your host is really old, though I suppose the whole point of cross-lfs is to expand the number of hosts we can build from.

Jim/Jeremy, could you audit all occurences of 'sed' prior to chapter 6.17 (sed-4.1.4 installation) and remove the '-i' flag please? Either that or we need to have modern 'sed' built really early on.

Cheers,

Matt.

Matt, that's they way we do it in the multi-arch and in lfs for some of the sed's we would have to change them all in all the books. Which I think is not the direction we should go in.
