Almost to my own distro, but ran into a problem on the last page (of course) of instructions trying to make grub setup my hd0. I've got 4 partitions on a 160gb hd, 1 being M$ (unfortunately) 2 being ext3 (LFS), 3 being a storage fat32 partition and 4 being my swap. Now upon trying to root (hd0,1) it says "Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x6" and upon going anyhow and trying setup (hd0) I get "Error 17: Cannot mount partition". My host is the LFS LiveCD. All help is appreciated.
Did you copy the needed stage1_5 files to the /boot/grub directory? It's unfortunately not very noticeable in the book. Take a look at the end of the GRUB chapter 6.34. I usually copy all the stage1_5 files because they're not that big, but you can be more selective. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter06/grub.html I don't know if that'll solve your problem. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
