Hey Guys, This is my first mail to the list- I'm a relative newbie- though not a complete Linux noob who is clueless about what is happening.
I am using Ubuntu 10.04- Lucid Lynx and I'm following LFS version 6.6. My Host System Requirements output is as follows: bash, version 4.1.5(1)-release /bin/sh -> /bin/dash Binutils: (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.20.1-system.20100303 bison (GNU Bison) 2.4.1 /usr/bin/yacc -> /usr/bin/bison.yacc bzip2, Version 1.0.5, 10-Dec-2007.

I have not deviated from the book at all, the only possible difference might be any differences in the host system requirement. For example, /bin/sh is not a symlink to bash, but I've only used bash throughout. I went through a few of the mail archives, and I realized that I had made a mistake in the configparams file - I have rectified it. $ cat configparams CFLAGS += -march=i486 -mtune=native My extracted glibc is a subfolder of an independent folder glibc-build. I removed glibc-2.11.1 & downloaded & tried to install glibc version 2.5.1 & 2.8.1. But, I got errors saying that these packages are too outdated. How do I proceed further? Thank you so much!
