<title>Introduction</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>This chapter shows how to cross-compile basic utilities using
|
|
the just built cross-toolchain. Those utilities are installed into
|
|
their final location, but cannot be used yet. Basic tasks still rely on
|
|
the host's tools. Nevertheless, the installed libraries are used when
|
|
linking.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Using the utilities will be possible in next chapter after entering
|
|
the <quote>chroot</quote> environment. But all the packages built in the
|
|
present chapter need to be built before we do that. Therefore we cannot be
|
|
independent of the host system yet.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Once again, let us recall that improper setting of <envar>LFS</envar>
|
|
together with building as root, may render your computer unusable.
|
|
This whole chapter must be done as user <systemitem
|
|
class="username">lfs</systemitem>, with the environment as described in
|
|
<xref linkend="ch-preps-settingenviron"/>.</para>
