I will continue studying the book, asking questions and watching
eveyones else's progress. But for now I'm really burned out. I can't even
get beyond building a C compiler for the system. As someone else mentioned
rading the book in HTML is much easier that reading a pdf.

The latest LFS livecd has binutils 2.17 which is require to build
glibc-2.13 but when I try to run the configure script it tells me that the

Why does the LFS disk say the assembler is too old to be making
glibc-2.13 for the target x86_64 ? I was counting on that disk.

How do you save your work on the LFS dvd? I also would like to hibernate
my system. When I first boot the bottom of the screen says "kernel active"
but a BIOS test must be ran and I'm getting an interrupt I believe. Does
that mean I should reset some settings there or is a POST problem error
Do you think this grml would be better to use than the lfs boot disk? I
downloaded the 64-bit 100M version.

that gcc has not supplied a header called cpuid.h. glibc gets a little

That's the version I read. One of my prior problems was I was compiling
binutils-2.21 with gcc-3.4.6. And mpfc mpc and gmp with 3.4.6 as well as
4.6.0 with 3.4.6. I guess gcc needs to be atleast 4.5.2 in building lfs.
Well I've pretty much follwed the book word for word up to the
compilation of binutils and it breaks the enviornment can't find the ld.
