OK, so just to make sure I'm following you, you diff'd the build logs between 1-2 and 2-3. You also did farce on 1-2 or 1-3? You make a good point, and binary diffing between 1-2 or 1-3 will definitely help, and it should be known whether you can build LFS from the alphabetical system. I still believe that building Ch.6 from Ch.6 instead of the entire build is important.
