I had a grub.cfg issue and fixed it, using 0,1 to orient it properly.
insmod ext2
set root=(hd0,1)
menuentry "GNU/Linux, Linux 3.13.3-lfs-7.5" {
linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.3-lfs-7.5 root=/dev/sdb1 ro
}
It was (hd0,2), which didn't work.
However, if I boot with "root=/sdb1 ro" it just freezes up during the
boot. So, I edited the grub by passing root=/sda1 and it
works...technically speaking...booting up with four pengiuns, but then all
the way up into X Window too. Doing uname -a confirms the 3.13 kernel.
So, at least I know my LFS kernel boots! It pulled the kernel from the USB
drive, but the root is then rehomed to my sda1 system, avoiding the freeze
up. Given that, I should be able to perfect it somehow, but I think I will
start over my spare laptop or a USB thumb drive. Thanks for all the help.
