Just checked the trunk. I thought I'd to that so I could try 64-bit from LFS SVN. JHALFS is LFS-6.5 isn't it?

I've read all the documentation on jhalfs that I could find and there are some things that I'd like to clear up. 1. cd to jhalfs directory and <sudo make> ? 2. I saw in the TODO something about adding the ability to continue after a reboot. I'm assuming now that I need to keep my machine on during the build. Unless...... 3. Can I shutdown if I put a breakpoint in the makefile call? 4. The example of a breakpoint in the README is "BREAKPOINT=84-bash." Is `84` the chapter number? If it is then, BREAKPOINT=629-bash if using LFS-SVN. 5. How does jhalfs handle test failures? Does it stop for investigation? Maybe some of these questions are answered AFTER the Makefile exists. I'm intending on a "practice run" up to some point and then stopping, clean-up and do the things necessary to go for a complete build.
