I saw this thread that I thought was related but is addressing the issue in LFS 6.6
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/lfs-support/2010-April/038457.html I'm setting up LFS 7.0. I am doing this in a VMworkstation 8 environment with the GRML Live CD as my host. The default setup for the hard drive in the VMworkstation environment is SCSI. I can set it up as IDE but have to do that from the get go. I have tried loading every driver in the Linux 3.1 kernel. I've loaded all the SCSI and all the PATA drivers in different configurations. When I look in the dmesg, it just states that it is a SCSI device but doesn't list a specific chipset. This to me points to possibly that Linux 3.1 may not have the drivers for this and would make setting it up on LFS 7.0 very difficult without a patch under this current configuration. I am trying to avoid re-setting up my VM with the IDE hard drive if at all possible. Please let me know if anyone else has come across this issue.
