Because the syntax is wrong. See the example in the book. Also, the kernel line is probably wrong if you didn't set up a separate /boot partition. It's really hard maintain patience when users ask questions without trying to do some research, like reading the book, on their own. It's also hard to help when the information supplied is basically "It doesn't work" with virtually no details. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
