We could, but we refer to the first build. I wouldn't think that this change is necessary. However, I didn't think the change to pass 1 was unclear either. The change already made was to prevent users from assuming things that were not stated. I'd think that if they would recognize that this was the same. Let's wait to see if we get any questions on this. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
