| 3 | 1. INTRODUCTION::
|
|---|
| 4 |
|
|---|
| 5 | This collection of scripts, known as jhalfs-X, strives to create
|
|---|
| 6 | an accurate makefile directly from the XML files used to generate a
|
|---|
| 7 | specific book from the diferent Linux From Scratch documentation
|
|---|
| 8 | projects.
|
|---|
| 9 |
|
|---|
| 10 | The usage of this script assumes you have read and are familiar with
|
|---|
| 11 | the book and therefore the configuration variables found in conf files
|
|---|
| 12 | will have meaning to you. There are a number of command line switches
|
|---|
| 13 | which, if used, will override the config file settings.
|
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 | NOTES::
|
|---|
| 16 | *. The resulting Makefile takes considerable time to run to completion,
|
|---|
| 17 | lay in a supply of caffeine beverages.
|
|---|
| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 | *. It is recommended that you temporarily unpack your linux kernel and
|
|---|
| 20 | run <make menuconfig> and configure the kernal as per the book and save
|
|---|
| 21 | the resulting .config file. This configuration rule also applies to the
|
|---|
| 22 | configuration of the uClibc package when building a HLFS system using
|
|---|
| 23 | uClibc rather than glibc.
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | 2. INSTALLATION::
|
|---|
| 26 | No installation is required. No system-wide installation isn't allowed
|
|---|
| 27 | for now.
|
|---|
| 28 |
|
|---|
| 29 | 3. CONFIGURATION FILES::
|
|---|
| 30 | Each book in the LFS series has it's own set of configurable parameters as
|
|---|
| 31 | well as the common parameters file.
