Hi, OK so LFS doesn't use anymore sysvinit, but Systemd. I thought the book 9ould use an approach like the CLFS one: one chapter if you use Systemd; one if sysvinit (in CLFS: if you chroot; if you reboot). Given that the choice is at runtime or config time, and not at install time, I think the foreword could be changed. First because LFS isn't easily installable on a very little system, Systemd is very big. Then, the teaching approach seems very different now: are you sure it stays really easy to learn a system? Is the pedagogic purpose still really reached?
