Just realized that I did the 2nd pass of binutils-2.17 build from within the source directory instead of the build directory. Is this going to be a problem with the rest of the build? If it is, can I undo it and how, or do I need to start from scratch again? -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailm

LFS & Virtualbox

2008-07-27 Thread Scott Castaline
I have seen in the archives mention of installing VirtualBox on a system created by LFS. I am wondering if anyone has used VirtualBox to run the LiveCD to create a Linux system on a VM. If there are anyone that's done this, are there any gotchas that I should be looking out for? -- http://linux

2008-07-25 Thread Scott Castaline
Is it possible to build LFS on a VM particularly VirtualBox-1.6.2 using the LiveCD as the Host under VBox? Any recommended initial settings for the Host/Guest configurations? Also the Guest Additions for Linux would not be useful until well into BLFS? -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/list
