Hey Spikey , tried compiling atfer I changed ownership of /tools to lfs but it now takes forever like over 30 minutes on my i5 and counting. I am curiuos if this is
normal or a problem?

Hi xerofoify,
I'm also using fedora 17 for compiling LFS 7.1.
The best advise I can give you is:
Do not use GCC-4.7 to compile LFS packages!
I ran into many issues when I compiled programs with this version.
Thus I downgraded gcc and everything worked well.
As you can see I posted this in fedora forums:

Sorry but the forum is in french, so I'll try to resume the steps
to downgrade your gcc-4.7 to gcc-4.6.2.
First download gcc-4.6.2-1.fc17.1.x86_64.rpm, cpp-4.6.2-1.fc17.1.x86_64.rpm and libgomp-4.6.2-1.fc17.1.x86_64.rpm from
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/b...buildID=271635
then cd to the place where your rpm files are and use this command:
You'll now have gcc-4.6.2, to verify this, type:
Once you'll have gcc-4.6.2, try to redo the build steps of LFS.

It still take s forever I have no idea as using make -j128 should make it compile faster.

@xerofoify: A machine with 128 cores/cpu's..... I'm jealous!

Same °_°. I don't imagine what could result of a -j128 on a monocore or a dualcore >.<

It works now when i did make -j2.Thanks alot for your help.
