LFS 6.7 : $LFS/sources and $LFS/tools folders missing
 
Hi,

I'm building LFS 6.7 with Ubuntu 10.10 as the host system .
I've successfully compiled pass 1 of binutils and gcc.
After which i rebooted the system .. but could not find my $LFS/sources and $LFS/tools folders . And was left with a broken link /tools.

Pls help me solve this issue

Thanks

Hi,

Did you manually remount $LFS before you re-started?

Hope this helps.

No I did not,
I tried logging in as lfs user and then checked the environment variable $LFS
it outputs
Code:

lfs@prakash-laptop:~$ echo $LFS
/mnt/lfs

but does not show the folders which i created

You do have to mount it after (re)booting.

Have a look at chapter 2.4. You need to do redo all these steps (expect the mkdir .... command) after each reboot. These commands need to be done as root user.

After remounting $LFS you can become the lfs user and continue with chapter 5.

The moment you arrive at chapter 6 things will be different, but lets finish chapter 5 first ;)

Hope this helps.
