Hi, I have Ubuntu linux and I am trying to install Linux from scratch (LFS). I have normal pc with intel 686 cpu. I have gcc 4.1.2 20060928 (prerelease)
For this I first have to install binutils. I follow instructions from page : http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter05/binutils-pass1.html So I downloaded the latest binutils in gnu.org directory. It is version 2.17.50.0.9. Then I created binutils-build directory. Then I run : configure --prefix=/tools --disable-nls make make install But it makes so many things that I think this pc doesnt need : It creates a huge library file : -rw-r--r-- 1 lfs lfs 4717022 Jan 21 15:08 libbfd.a It compiled many stuff like vxwork, which isnt usefull here I guess. And I look at config.log, I get those errors : configure:2192: checking whether compiler driver understands Ada configure:2224: checking how to compare bootstrapped objects configure:2344: checking for correct version of gmp.h configure:2357: gcc -c -g -O2 conftest.c 1>&5 configure:2347:17: error: gmp.h: No such file or directory configure: In function 'main': configure:2351: error: 'choke' undeclared (first use in this function) configure:2351: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only onc e configure:2351: error: for each function it appears in.) configure:2351: error: expected ';' before 'me' configure: failed program was: #line 2346 "configure" #include "confdefs.h" I think these are minor errors because after that , compilation works ok. But anyway, I write them to you :-). My aim is to have optimized compilation for the target. And I am sure if I followed correct steps and options .
