The problem is more, that the underlying LFS system also needs to be
compiled in the right way.
The most critical stuff is glibc and gcc, but we could compile and inst=
all
them on our own.
We also have to get rid of copying any binaries from the LFS system,
because they would be for the wrong CPU. But thats not a big deal, beca=
use
we just have to add the stuff to our current build system.
This would solve the issue with the LFS system.
