Chapter 6.10 Re-adjusting the Toolchain

Follow instructions as is. I was a bit surprised to see: i686-pc-linux-gnu in the output because I thought that it should be lfs in place of pc. Not too worried.

"It is a good idea to visually inspect the specs file" but where is it? I ran the gcc -dumpspecs command at root level. Which is ok.

/root:/# find / -name specs
/tools/lib/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/4.4.3/specs
/tools/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.3/specs

Running diff betwen these two files yields too many differences. What I do notice is that, tools does not appear in the -pc- specs. And, it was created today. (That is what the command did, but the sed commands are quite intricate.)

root:/tools/lib/gcc# ls -lrt i686-*-linux-gnu/4.4.3/specs
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4616 Jun  1 13:17 i686-lfs-linux-gnu/4.4.3/specs
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4731 Jun  9 10:53 i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.3/specs

Proceed with remainder of commands and checks. Everything is OK!
