Replying to [comment:31 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > My idea is that the problem of configuring the network interfaces (i.e., getting the correct udev rules and writing the corresponding interface configuration files) '''has multiple solutions'''. Yes, certainly. > The book should not present only one of the methods (that would not be educational enough), but must present the goal, include an overview of '''some''' available methods to reach it, and provide some means to verify that it has been in fact reached. At the risk of harping on a bad solution, "or just use udevtest". :-P Although actually, I do think that even if we do go with udevtest, it'd still be a good idea to present the goal (as you say) and say "this section explains how we recommend achieving this goal, but there are alternate solutions; see XXXX and YYYY". Those can be hints, or in-book paragraphs (of course then the sentence structure would change), or whatever. They could even be (in the future) alternate book renderings based on the user's choice, though we don't have the infrastructure for that yet. And if we don't go with udevtest, then that kind of explanation should still certainly be there, yes. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/2057#comment:34> LFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/> Linux From Scratch: Your Distro, Your Rules. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
