<title>Installation of Glibc</title>
<para>
Once glibc has been unpacked as usual, unpack glibc-linuxthreads inside
the glibc-&glibc-version; directory, not in /usr/src
</para>
<para>
Install Glibc by running the following commands:
</para>
<para>
<screen>
<userinput>mknod -m 0666 /dev/null c 1 3 &amp;&amp;</userinput>
<userinput>touch /etc/ld.so.conf &amp;&amp;</userinput>
<userinput>mkdir /usr/src/glibc-build &amp;&amp;</userinput>
<userinput>cd /usr/src/glibc-build &amp;&amp;</userinput>

During the configure stage you will see the following warning:
</para>
<blockquote><screen>
configure: warning:
*** An auxiliary program is missing or too old;
*** some features will be disabled.
*** Check the INSTALL file for required versions.
</screen></blockquote>
<para>
This warning refers to the missing msgfmt program from the gettext
package. But there is nothing to worry about: Glib will still be
installed the same way as when msgfmt is present. It can safely be
ignored in our case.
</para>
<para>
By exiting the chroot'ed environment and re-entering it, you will be
able to get rid of the "I have no name!" message in the command prompt,
which is caused by bash's inability to resolve a userid to a username.
You don't have to exit and re-enter chroot, but it's highly recommended
to ensure a properly working bash.
</para>
<para>
Run the following commands to accomplish this:
</para>
<para>
<screen>
<userinput>logout</userinput>
&c6-chrootcmd;
</screen>
</para>
