6. Any deviations from the document?
--------------------------------------------------------
As far as I remember, I have stuck to the text. However, I did create a
separate build folder for Pass 2 called binutils-build2. I assumed that the
build folder created in Pass 1 needed to be separate from that in Pass 2.
Other Notes
-------------------
1. The sanity check immediately before 5.9.1 where a dummy.c is created and
compiled using $LFS_TGT-gcc gives the following (correct) output:
[Requesting program interpreter: /tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2]
I realize that something has gone amiss in previous stages. Could someone
please tell me whether I need to start from scratch or just redo some stage?
Thanks
Abhinav.
