First, the obligatory "please don't top post" (and trim what you are replying to) message. I don't remember any messages about setting up the gateway in any version of LFS, so I suspect that you are booting the LFS kernel but with the ubuntu userspace. If you don't have a root= parameter in that grub entry, add one pointing to the LFS partition. If you do have one, check that it is pointing to the right partition. After that, booting with init=/bin/bash is the way to diagnose problems - you start with the root mounted read-only, and have to step through the scripts in-order until you find what breaks. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
