115 | install from invoking strip -s on the files. This fails because a

116 | couple of the installed files are shell scripts rather than programs,

226 | used to create device files. This second file (MAKEDEV-temp) doesn't
|
---|
227 | contain user names and group names but only user id's and group id's. We
|
---|
228 | need a few device files to get Glibc installed, but before GLibc is
|
---|
229 | installed user and group names are not recognized yet; only the numeric
|
---|
230 | id's. This requires a slightly modified MAKEDEV script which will be
|
---|
231 | generated by patching the original one. This patching is done here in
|
---|
232 | chapter 5. Also, fixed the explanations on both makedev installations.
