Why the division? I thought cross-lfs was just a way of building LFS from arch X to arch Y but in all other respects it would be similar to LFS. The end result of the two books should not be different (unless it is absolutely warranted e.g. bootloaders). If I am build LFS and cross LFS with target architecture of x86, the installation should be identical. What if gcc-5 is released tomorrow and LFS upgrades to it but BLFS says - "We are a different project and no one on blfs-dev wants to upgrade to the new release so BLFS will just stick with gcc-4." The situation you are mentioning is quite similar. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
