I'm glad I started my testing in qemu, rather than hitting a problem on real hardware and having to reboot to get to a desktop.
At the moment, I cannot boot *my* minimally-usable system, the nfs-client bootscript is hanging. First time, I had messages something like: Starting NFS statd...rpc.statd: svc_tli_create: could not open connection for udp6 rpc.statd: svc_tli_create: could not open connection for tcp6 (copied by hand, reformatted by pasting) The messages are because ipv6 is now the default in nfs-utils, configure --help says --disable-ipv6 disable support for IPv6 [default=no] So, I tried that and got rid of the messages, but the hang persists, in start_daemon/usr/sbin/rpc.statd from the nfs-client bootscript. I'm going out now, will look at this later - for the moment, just a Heads Up that there might be a problem here. Also, should we (both LFS and BLFS) assume that our kernels support ipv6 ? ĸen -- Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early. After all, she was an old lady.
