After a fairly extensive discussion, I've update the host system requirements page in svn:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/prologue/hostreqs.html I considered an erratum, but we really don't want to be put in the position of having to bring it forward for each release. What I have is a compromise. I added the note under gcc and added the final few lines in the script. I believe that the combination addresses the slackware problem. If I do not hear anything that needs adjustments in the next few hours, I will release the current svn as LFS-7.5 stable. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
