No distro implements what we have in LFS-6.2. Also, the text on the kernel page is now slightly wrong because, unlike previous versions, linux-2.6.17 does attempt to avoid producing invalid UTF-8 sequences (this doesn't mean "always produces correct characters"). So let's stay with what upstream has tested, and apply the following patch to the book (it does introduce regressions in functionality, but we are still not worse than anyone else).

OK, thanks Alexander. I've added the UTF-8 input patch to the patches repo, but just so as to shut the errors up for now. I'll look at your proposed patch tomorrow when I've got more time.

Regards,

Matt.
