thanks to DJ Delorie with his bootstrap script...
 
I finished a stage1 cross compile and than tried to chroot to run stage 2 for the rootfs and seems that any version of f13 - f14 that i have of fedora...i cant seem to get a chroot command to run.
 
[root@build1 stage2]# chroot /zmount/stage2/rootfs /bin/bash
Illegal instruction
im compiling the latest f13 coreutils i could find on the fedora koji site to see if that works...but i thought i would post here as well to get anyones experience in this area.
 
am i chroot challenged here?
