I can attest to this. I have been trying to get a good compatible build of LFS built on my Athlon 64 machine. I have had fun trying to get a good multilib build, but when it comes down to it, LFS is much more of a "known good" solution than CLFS, I assume this is mostly due to the sheer numbers of testers. I want to use this system as a more "stable" build that I can tar up and use as my main "working" distro. I had to start building the LFS portion in a virtual x86 machine because I didn't know exactly how to force an x86 build on my x86_64. I guess it's time to check the hints. :) Craig Jackson (TheEpitome) -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
