There's a script named "ccl" in ccl/scripts.  You can copy it to /usr/local/bin or anyplace else you like, edit it to suit, and then use "ccl" to start up the lisp.

Thank you.

I'm running lx86cl from its own directory, where *.image files are located.

? (probe-file #p"ccl:")
#P"/home/user/bin/ccl/ccl-1.6/"

Which - according to what you have said - is right, I think.

And yes, "asdf.lisp" is into "tools" subdirectory:

$ ls tools/asdf.lisp
tools/asdf.lisp
