Section 8.4. "Making the LFS System Bootable" says to start the grub shell and issue a command like "root (hd0,3)." The root
command, however, cannot mount the partition since we have not yet exited the chroot environment and grub cannot find any hard
drives. Is this right, or am I missing smth?
You probably didn't start udev. Run /sbin/udevstart and you should have your
hard drive devices in /dev.
Well, it appears that I have called /sbin/udevstart (as explained in section 6.58. Udev-056) but after shutdown (shutdown -hP now)
and restart I do not see any devices in /mnt/lfs/dev besides null and console. Any ideas why this happens?
Hmm, I guess that udevstart creates devices on the temp filesystem, mounted in 6.2. Mounting Virtual Kernel File Systems, and they
get lost when the system is rebooted. Could this be the case?
