Andrew a écrit :
I would highly recommend that we stay away from lfs based systems,
and build our isos using sourcemage, it would be like installing gentoo
and building an smgl iso with it. There is currently a lot of good
stuff in //sgl/cauldron and the like for building isos and so forth,
theres currently both ppc and x86 isos so one can just install a
sourcemage ppc system and go from there using sorcery and some of hamish's
other scripts that work around the current dificiencys in sorcery.

Sorry. I made a mistake. LFS book can be divided into 3 steps:
- building a statically linked system
- using this system to build a temporary dynamically linked system
- using this last system to build the final system

In my ISO build script, I replace this last step with :
- using this last system to build the final system WITH SORCERY AND STABLE GRIMOIRE.

I don't know yet how the "install root" feature of sorcery work, but one think I learn from sorcery is that you cannot build a system with only one step! Compiling binutils/gcc/glibc is quite tricky!!!
