dhcp is not a part of LFS. There is no reason you can't use a static IP instead. However, you can build dhcp from BLFS if you want. You will need ot build openssl and openssh and start sshd from a boot script to log in remotely. Are you by any chance building this in a VM? If so, which one? The only time I've heard of anyone having problmes with usb are when the drivers are not built into the kernel properly. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
