Hello,
I'm in the middle of building the LFS system for my build server (had
to be postponed for a clients urgent request but I'm back at it) and
googled LFS-DEV archive to see if there was any mention of the x32 ABI
which would be useful for small machines and also, the linode I bought
for said client (a 5$ linode running
http://launchpad.alphafinancialservices.net/ and
http://mailtrain.alphafinancialservices.net/ on LFS-svn with one of
their linode kernels).
I tried to build an x32 configuration many times previously using LFS,
CLFS or some kind of combinations which failed all the times. That
said, this time, I do plan to investigate the failures in questions.
I use linode. Why use an x32 ABI? I've done 64-bit builds there several
times and the native system is 64-bit.
Be sure to have plenty of swap space for the small systems. It will take
a while, but it works. I like the Debian host to start the build and I
use their kernel and boot loader for LFS.
