LFS 5.1.1 - Can't install binutils-2.14
I'm trying to install LFS 5.1.1 from Debian 3.0r1.
I've built binutils-2.14 according to the instructions in the book, but when I run the last command (make install) I get the following output: /bin/sh ../binutils-2.14/mkinstallers /tools /tools mkdir /tools mkdir /tools make: *** [installdirs] Error 1 Any ideas? I recursively chmoded everything in the binutils-2.14 and binutils-build directories to 777 to give full access for everyone before unpacking the .tar file. I know it's noob question, but I figured I'd rather learn linux from the bottom up instead of starting with a ready-made distro that does all the hard work for me and installs like Windows. I checked in / and I have the link /tools that points to /lfs/tools Everything's permission 777 (-rwxrwxrwx) in the /lfs/sources directory |
My advice...
Start again. Read a whole chapter. Read a page Read a line Check the line Type the line Read the line again Check the line Execute it the line Read next line Check next line etc etc etc Seriously, double check EVERYTHING and do everything EXACTLY as written the first time you build LFS. An apparently small thing left out may cause the whole thing to fail... like 2 days later. |
Wise words. But I would add one thing. If you type the words it's possible you may make an error that could be avoided if you use copy and paste from your browser.
