Hi, I'm not sure that this is the right mailing list, but I'm going to throw this out there anyways.
I've got a few questions about building LFS on a 64 bit host and how multilib works. 1. What exactly is multilib? (I've googled, wikipedia'd etc and I'm still a bit confused) from my understanding, it's simply an additional set of libraries that will allow for a system to interpret both 32 bit and 64 bit machine code. 2. I'm building on a 64 bit system, if I follow the book exactly, would this build yield a 32 bit or 64 bit system? 3. if the answer to question one is 64 bit, is this automatically a multilib system or are there additional steps that will pave the way to multilib? 4. can I use the LFS book to create a 32bit system on a 64 bit OS? (I'm assuming that the book for this would be CLFS though) --- Thanks, Kyle Brennan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
