LFS make mrproper prob


well I got my last problem figured out but then ran into more problems and decided to start over b/c I am pretty sure that a couple of things had errors but I just kept going.

Well now on the retry I am getting an error trying to do the following:

Quote:
make mrproper &&
yes "" | make config &&
make dep &&
mkdir $LFS/usr/include/asm &&
cp include/asm/* $LFS/usr/include/asm &&
cp -R include/linux $LFS/usr/include
i get the following error message:
Quote:
make: *** No rule to make target 'mrproper'. Stop.
any solutions?

Re: LFS make mrproper prob

Are you in the /usr/src/linux directory when you run that make mrproper?

If yes, then the Makefile file is corrupt or removed. Other files may then be missing/corrupt too. Unpack the linux tarball again for safety.
