I never use it, and I don't see why it's needed to compile LFS. There's a problem with your gcc check, I get: FAIL: gcc v4.5.1 seems too old (<3.0.1) A comment in your script says: #(Versions greater than 4.4.3 are not recommended as they have not been tested) But the current stable LFS uses gcc-4.5.1... Also, you may need to tweak your glibc check to work on systems that don't have executable shared libraries. On my systems almost all shared libraries (including /lib/libc.so.6) have premissions 644 so I get: FAIL: glibc vhost_check.sh: line 333: /lib/libc.so.6: Permission denied FAILED (2.2.5-2.11.2) A comment in your script says: #(Versions greater than 2.11.2 are not recommended as they have not been tested) But the current stable LFS uses glibc-2.12.1 Andy -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
