However, now I'm falling over at the next hurdle.  The Linux From 
Scratch manual states:

Caution
At this point, it is imperative to stop and ensure that the basic 
functions (compiling and linking) of the new toolchain are working as 
expected. To perform a sanity check, run the following commands:
	echo 'int main(){}' > dummy.c
	$LFS_TGT-gcc dummy.c
	readelf -l a.out | grep ': /tools'
If everything is working correctly, there should be no errors, and the 
output of the last command will be of the form:

[Requesting program interpreter: /tools/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2]

Note that for 32-bit machines, the interpreter name will be
	/tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2.

If the output is not shown as above or there was no output at all, then 
something is wrong. Investigate and  retrace the steps to find out where 
the problem is and correct it. This issue must be resolved before 
continuing on.

But for me the results of this test compilation are ...
/media/lfs/tools/lib/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/7.3.0/../../../../i686-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ld: 
cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory
/media/lfs/tools/lib/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/7.3.0/../../../../i686-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ld: 
cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
/media/lfs/tools/lib/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/7.3.0/../../../../i686-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ld: 
cannot find /media/lfs/tools/lib/libc.so.6 inside /media/lfs
/media/lfs/tools/lib/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/7.3.0/../../../../i686-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ld: 
cannot find /media/lfs/tools/lib/libc_nonshared.a inside /media/lfs
/media/lfs/tools/lib/gcc/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/7.3.0/../../../../i686-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ld: 
cannot find /media/lfs/tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2 inside /media/lfs

However, in fact all these files exist:

lfs@hostname:/media/lfs$ find . -name crt1.o
./tools/lib/crt1.o
lfs@hostname:/media/lfs$ find . -name libc.so.6
./tools/lib/libc.so.6
lfs@hostname:/media/lfs$ find . -name libc_nonshared.a
./tools/lib/libc_nonshared.a
lfs@hostname:/media/lfs$ find . -name ld-linux.so.2
./tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2

I've retraced my steps by hand on my 64-bit machine, and also tried 
running the same makefile on a 32-bit machine, both with identical 
results, so difference in the makefile due to the bitness of the 
machine/OS is not the issue.

Anyone any ideas?
