I don't understand. I'm aware of CLFS (and even for the PowerPC). This is assuming I want to build a system on a platform other than its destined platform. I'm actually building it on a PowerPC box running LFS-6.2. That's not the point.
The reason I mentioned that I was doing this on PowerPC was to put all the variables on the table. I'm not sure if this is unique to PowerPC. I suspect that it's actually unique to gcc-4.1. The point is, if you do a "gcc -dumpspecs", the linker information is no longer at the beginning of the line. It's in the middle. The problem is that step 5.7 is about making sure that your linking against the /tools/lib/ linker, not the /lib linker. Because the sed statement specifies the substitution only if the text matches at the beginning of the line, the linker is not substituted. I discovered this because I followed the steps, ran the gcc test, and discovered that I was still linking to the /lib linker. Has anyone running this on x86 come across this? Is there anyone with a gcc 4.1 install that can verify whether the linkers mentioned in the dumpspecs file still only show up at the beginning of the line? They don't for me. - Jon On Jul 12, 2007, at 8:07 PM, Bruce Dubbs wrote: > Jon Fullmer wrote: > >> When putting this system for a non-x86 (PowerPC, to be specific), I >> noticed that this setup is actually wrong. > > You may want to check out http://trac.cross-lfs.org/ for the PowerPC. > > -- Bruce > -- > http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev > FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ > Unsubscribe: See the above information page > -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
