I'm attempting to build v6177 (should be 2.0.6 if I'm not mistaken) on a 
COS6 host. I've gotten over several hurdles, but I'm stuck on perl now. 
I ran ./make.sh gettoolchain, so perl wasn't built in that phase.

The make.sh is choking at "chroot_make perl", with the following error:

+ cd /usr/src/lfs
+ make -f perl LFS_BASEDIR=/usr/src install
====================================== Installing perl-5.10.1 ...
Install started; saving file list to /usr/src/lsalr ...
cd /usr/src/perl-5.10.1 && tar zxf /usr/src/cache/
tar (child): /usr/src/cache/: Cannot read: Is a directory
tar (child): At beginning of tape, quitting now
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
make: *** [/usr/src/files_i486/02_base/perl-5.10.1] Error 2

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'll continue to learn what that script's doing in the meantime.
Thanks.
