Compiling the complete LFS it again stopped at the same point. I use the following command command style for backgrounding the script: Ref: http://www.askdavetaylor.com/my_background_jobs_in_linux_have_become_invisible.html $ nohup rsync args > /tmp/rsync.log & Then, if you want to watch it working, simply use: $ tail -f /tmp/rsync.log
Not the answer you're looking for, but a much better general purpose solution is to use screen. It's an awesome terminal multiplexer. screen+ssh lets me do massive jobs like lfs builds while I'm at work or the ice cream social. Log in, open the screen session, start script, close screen session, log out. Come back days later, open screen session, enjoy completed results. Have Randy get angry at you when you leave your screen session running for months.
