Not sure this is the place to discuss this, but since it involves a small
addition, I've thought I could talk about that:
- when building a sysv book, once the network page has been completed, network
is accessible in chroot. Of course, networking program are not easy to use
(bash sockets, perl, and openssl, which all give complicated commands), but it
is usable. For example the make-ca script can fetch certificates from the
mozilla site.
- when building a systemd book, the recommandation on the network page is to
create a symlink from /etc/resolv.conf to /run/systemd/resolve/resolve.conf.
Since /run is empty, the network is unusable (no name resolution). This is
easy to fix by adding:
mkdir -pv $LFS/run/systemd/resolve
cp -v {,$LFS}/run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf
to "Preparing virtual kernel filesystems".
Note that this copy is just for the duration of the chroot session, since /run
is a tmpfs...
Thoughts?
