   I don't see the real value of this ability.. That is why I created
the config files, to eliminate the 20 switch command line.

When rendering the multiple variations for each book (CLFS requires 44 runs to track properly the arch, method and testsites-level variations) to can diffing the changes with previous ones, I find annoying to have to edit the config files each time and to remember to return it to their default values before doing a commit.
  I see your point..
Of course, for final user could be most simple and failsafe to edit the config files.

   I also forgot the problem with CLFS 'boot method' makefile division.
Back in the cave I go, the yellow ball is supposed to return in my
lifetime.. *sigh*

The current implementation work for now?
CLFS build works fine for method=chroot. There is a specific work method when using it with method=boot. At the moment once the building of the boot partition succeeds clfs-Makefile is forced to exit( by a very ugly method). The builder then transfers $BUILDDIR to the destination machine, and does a second make -f clfs-Makefile and the build process continues.

  What I want/wanted was
   make -f clfs-Makefile makeboot
   make -f clfs-Makefile makesys
then there could be no change for errors.. (Yes, I did it once or twice and so will someone else)


My point is that the current experimental code is better than the old one, thus we should to promote it to trunk ASAP.
