Michael,

Which package(s) require the files libmpfr.la and libmpc.la? How do you know you need these files? Same for the glibc file? And what does all of this have to do with modifying grub???

The debian package manager is very robust and is designed to keep one from shooting themselves in the foot, imo. So, before you start grabbing random files and installing them on your machine, make sure you know what you are doing!

Do:
find /lib /*/lib -name libgmp.la

Here is an idea.... I could scp the program from a computer with the programs.

Here is another idea:

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
???????????
