Fernando hijacked the thread but I need to start a new one anyways.

So I need to recompile the kernel because .... some options are needed
for my hardware(?). Well, that is kinda vague instructions.
Well, here is a link to lshw for the box I am installing lfs on:

I don't know how to show other hardware info.
Please, tell me what I need to look up and how to look it up..... show
me how to look up .... give me a sample of the process with one of the
items.


What I would do for a first LFS build is to copy the host configuration
(on Debian, it is /boot/config-<kernel-version>) to .config
after running "make mrproper", then type "make oldconfig" (you may have
to answer a few questions if the LFS jernel is newer than the one on the
host). Then build the kernel (make; make modules_install and so on).
Then try to boot the new LFS. If it starts, then you can begin to trim
down your configuration.
The first thing to do is "lsmod": it shows you the loaded modules, that
is: what is needed for your harware. It is not always easy to find the
configuration switch from the module name, but doing a search on the
module name often allows to find it.

Then go with trial and error...

Or in debian, run lsmod to see what modules are loaded that might be applicable.
