  14 <title>Installation of Util-linux</title>
  15
  16 <para>Util-linux doesn't use the freshly installed headers and libraries from
  17 the <filename>/tools</filename> directory. This is fixed by altering the
  18 configure script:</para>
  19
  20 <screen><userinput>cp configure configure.backup
  21 sed "s@/usr/include@/tools/include@g" configure.backup &gt; configure</userinput></screen>
  22
  23 <para>Prepare Util-linux for compilation:</para>
  24
  25 <screen><userinput>./configure</userinput></screen>
  26
  27 <para>Compile some support routines:</para>
  28
  29 <screen><userinput>make -C lib</userinput></screen>
  30
  31 <para>And, since you'll need only a couple of the utilities contained in this
  32 package, build just those:</para>
  33
  34 <screen><userinput>make -C mount  mount umount
  35 make -C text-utils  more
  36 make -C sys-utils  arch</userinput></screen>
  37
  38 <para>Now copy these programs to the temporary tools directory:</para>
  39
  40 <screen><userinput>cp mount/{,u}mount text-utils/more sys-utils/arch /tools/bin</userinput></screen>
