Hi,

This surprises me:

mv: cannot stat `/tools/i586-suse-linux/bin/ld': No such file or directory

/mnt/lfs/tools> ls
bin etc i686-pc-linux-gnu include info lib libexec man sbin share

What did chapter 5.2 tell you?

Another thing: Is Suse suitable as base for LFS (iv. Host System Requirements)?

The documentation does mention some distro's that could (potentially) be used as a base. But it doesn't mention any versions (could you use Suse 7?) and other important stuff.

The chapter I revered to (iv. Host System Requirements) mentions the packages and versions of those packages that are actually needed. It also shows a small script which can be used to check your host.

Even though it is good to know which interpreter is used, this is not the information that is important: You need to know which target triplet is used (the ./config.guess mentioned in 5.2).

What is actually in /tools (not /mnt/lfs/tools)?

Maybe your PATH setting and/or environment aren't correct (for the lfs user that is doing all the tasks, recheck chapter 4.4 Setting Up the Environment. Another thing that could have gone wrong and is related to this: 5.4. GCC-4.1.2 - Pass 1.

Hope this gets you going again.
