Just trying to get a feel for the issues at hand. ISTM that to buck historical use because obscure or highly specialized (liveCD) fs's might not like them is odd. Also, the live cd doesn't actually matter anyway because lastlog will not be written to. Therefore the file does not even have to exist. So again, I'm just trying to find out what value there is to *not* setting it to 65535. Just trying to paint a picture here, Bruce. I currently have no preformed opinion other than I would like lfs/blfs to match uid/gid and 65535 is the historical favorite. IOW, I'm trying to figure out if BLFS should use 65535, or if LFS should use what BLFS ends up using. -- Archaic Want control, education, and security from your operating system?
