If during the building of the CLFS system you encounter any errors, have any questions, or think there is a typo in the book, please start by consulting the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) that is located at http://trac.cross-lfs.org/wiki/faq.
The cross-lfs.org server hosts a number of
mailing lists used for the development of the CLFS project. These
lists include the main development and support lists, among others.
If the FAQ does not solve the problem you are having, the next step
would be to search the mailing lists at http://trac.cross-lfs.org/wiki/lists.
For information on the different lists, how to subscribe, archive locations, and additional information, visit http://trac.cross-lfs.org/wiki/lists.
Several members of the CLFS community offer assistance on our
community Internet Relay Chat (IRC) network. Before using this
support, please make sure that your question is not already
answered in the CLFS FAQ or the mailing list archives. You can find
the IRC network at chat.freenode.net. The
support channel for cross-lfs is named #cross-lfs. If you need to
show people the output of your problems, please use http://pastebin.cross-lfs.org
and reference the pastebin URL when asking your questions.
For additional information on the packages, useful tips are available in the LFS Package Reference page located at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~matthew/LFS-references.html.
The CLFS project has a number of world-wide mirrors to make accessing the website and downloading the required packages more convenient. Please visit http://trac.cross-lfs.org/wiki/mirrors for CLFS mirror information.
