oops.... I was inspecting version-check.sh script and notice that in line 33 what it said was 'glibc'  all of the other checked programs were '<program> --version |head -n1' so I made it like that and the output said I did not have that program either. So I googled for it and as with  libgmp.la libmpfr.la libmpc.la I couldn't find anything. I found pages that said something like 'how to install a current version ' but one of the requirements was an old version of the program. Here is an idea.... I could scp the program from a computer with the programs.

it found mpc. but, unfortunately, version-check.sh doesn't say it installed libmpc.la .

I ran the version-check script and some packages were installed and some not. I installed most of them but there were some that would not install. Google didn't help so I must ask here what package do I need to install to  get these libraries?

hello plug. well you helped me get ssh to work across networks so that now I can build an LFS OS on another computer as opposed to on another partition or onto a virtual machine. I installed Debian as the host OS to build LFS on. All is well except it falls asleep after five minutes and I can't compile things if it is going to fall asleep in the middle of the build. So I googled for a solution and found:

---
In the /etc/default/grub, modify the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to look like this:

$ GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=acpi=off apm=off

---

Well that is good except  on the debian system it reads:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"

I think the 'quiet' merely tells it not to print any boot text so I can just delete it but I am unsure. However, if I want to keep it quiet would I make it like so:
$ GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" acpi=off apm=off

???????????
