Hello,
I have tried to build LFS 6.1 three times with no success. All three attempts
have failed at the same point, so I'm wondering what I'm missing?
I am using the 6.1 book and have tried to build it on to the following 3
setups:
A VMware 4.5 virtual machine running Fedora Core 3
A VMware 4.5 virtual machine booted from the LiveCD 6.1
An AMD XP2200+ booted from the LiveCD 6.1
I followed the instructions in the book to the letter (as far as I know -- I
doubt I missed the same step 3 times).
Everything looks good up until ch. 9.3 where I do the "shutdown -r now". The
system shuts down, reboots, grub comes up, the kernel loads and gets to the
isapnp part. Then the system hangs.
The only part of the build left to my discretion was building the kernel --
could I have messed this up?
Does anyone have a .config for a minimal system which _will_ boot?
Any other ideas of things I might try to get it to work?
Hard to tell without more specifics. Can you give the exact reason why
it won't finish booting, or the error message it gives?
