| 3 | 1. INTRODUCTION::
|
|---|
| 4 |
|
|---|
| [86e1d17] | 5 | This collection of scripts, known as jhalfs-X, strives to create
|
|---|
| [8ca21dc] | 6 | accurate makefiles from the Linux From Scratch book series XML files.
|
|---|
| [e58c70fd] | 7 |
|
|---|
| 8 | The usage of this script assumes you have read and are familiar with
|
|---|
| [8ca21dc] | 9 | the book(s) and therefore the configuration variables found in config files
|
|---|
| [86e1d17] | 10 | will have meaning to you. There are a number of command line switches
|
|---|
| [e58c70fd] | 11 | which, if used, will override the config file settings.
|
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 | NOTES::
|
|---|
| 14 | *. The resulting Makefile takes considerable time to run to completion,
|
|---|
| 15 | lay in a supply of caffeine beverages.
|
|---|
| 16 |
|
|---|
| 17 | *. It is recommended that you temporarily unpack your linux kernel and
|
|---|
| 18 | run <make menuconfig> and configure the kernal as per the book and save
|
|---|
| [86e1d17] | 19 | the resulting .config file. This configuration rule also applies to the
|
|---|
| 20 | configuration of the uClibc package when building a HLFS system using
|
|---|
| 21 | uClibc rather than glibc.
|
|---|
| [e58c70fd] | 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | 2. INSTALLATION::
|
|---|
| [1a97861] | 24 | No installation is required. System-wide installation is not allowed
|
|---|
| [86e1d17] | 25 | for now.
|
|---|
| [e58c70fd] | 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | 3. CONFIGURATION FILES::
|
|---|
| [8ca21dc] | 28 | Each book in the LFS series has it's own set of configurable parameters
|
|---|
| 29 | as well as the common parameters file.
|
|---|
| [e58c70fd] | 30 |
|
|---|
| 31 | 4. RUNNING::
|
|---|
| [8ca21dc] | 32 | The script, master.sh, cannot be invoked directly but only via the
|
|---|
| 33 | supplied symlinks. After editing the config file for the project you wish
|
|---|
| 34 | to build run the script.
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | ./<symlink> --help will give you a context sensitive list of command
|
|---|
| 37 | line switches.
