If I need to make two separate posts instead of just this one let me know.

I would like to bring up two significant issues I am still experiencing with my LFS 9.0 (systemd) build that I hope to get resolved somehow.

The first issue is that my system will not create the necessary network interfaces during boot. The only interfaces detected by '*ip a*' are '*lo*' and a '*sit0*' interface for stunnel that I hoped to experiment with once I got everything up and running.

That is a kernel driver problem.  To see what the kernel recognizes, use:

ls /sys/class/net

You can use lspci on your host system to see what kind of network HW you have:

lspci | grep -i ether

Then go into the kernel configuration and select the correct driver. Sometimes it is a little tricky to decide exactly which driver for a manufacturer to use. If so, you can select multiple drivers as modules. Sometimes you can see what the host system uses with 'lsmod'.

If you are unlucky, you may need firmware for the network card. We can talk about that if the above doesn't work.
