- <title>Installation of Glibc</title>
 
- <para>Once glibc has been unpacked as usual and you have cd'ed into the
 
- glibc-&glibc-version; directory, unpack glibc-linuxthreads inside
 
- the glibc-&glibc-version; directory, not in /usr/src as you normally
 
- would do.</para>
 
- <para>Install Glibc by running the following commands:</para>
 
- <para><screen><userinput>mknod -m 0666 /dev/null c 1 3 &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>touch /etc/ld.so.conf &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>mkdir ../glibc-build &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>cd ../glibc-build &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>sed s/"\$(PERL)"/"\/usr\/bin\/perl"/ \</userinput>
 
- <userinput>   ../glibc-&glibc-version;/malloc/Makefile > tmp~ &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>mv tmp~ ../glibc-&glibc-version;/malloc/Makefile &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>sed "s/root/0/" ../glibc-&glibc-version;/login/Makefile > tmp~ &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>mv tmp~ ../glibc-&glibc-version;/login/Makefile &&</userinput>
 
- <userinput>../glibc-&glibc-version;/configure \</userinput>

- &c6-chrootcmd;</screen></para>
 
- <para>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 it can safely be ignored in our case.  The glibc 
 
- installation will not be affected.</para>
 
- <para>The last two commands make you exit and re-enter the chroot'ed 
 
- environment. This is done to get rid of the "I have
 
- no name!" message in the command prompt, which was caused by bash's
 
- inability to resolve a userid to a username (which in turn was caused by
 
- the missing Glibc installation).</para>
