I am only using the lfs 6.3 LiveCD (this is the newest and last lfs LiveCD released) so I will have a working environment to build lfs 6.5. You don't have to have a Linux OS installed on the hard drive where you are building lfs if you have a LiveCD (any LiveCD). The LiveCD lets you have network access so I can pull all the lfs 6.5 tarballs over. I have the lfs 6.5 book on another computer sitting next to the machine I am trying to build lfs 6.5 on. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
