Hello, Thanks for the help. The solution is very simple and I should have thought about it myself! Now, I need one more help. As already written, I have installed nano, wget and lynx successfully after completing LFS. In fact, I am wondering why they have not been included in LFs in the first place as a simple editor and Net connectivity are essential to go beyond LFS.
Just because you are more familiar with nano, doesn't mean others are. vi has been vaailable of Unix and Unix-like systems for at least 30 years. It is expected.
There is a note that says you can install the editor of your choice and a pointer to where the instructions are located.
LFS does give you network connectivity. You just have to go to BLFS for dhcp, but static IPs get you going and are easier.
I first installed Wireless Tools, WPA_supplicant and DHCP. I was getting "SERVICE" and other errors. I installed Firmware rtl8192cufw.bin. Even then, there was problem. So I tried "dhcpcd". Now, I can "ifup wlan0" and USB Wireless modem gets lighted. But when I try to connect I get this error message: "No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping." after assigning itself of IP - 169.X.X.X. I wanted to do these all over again as dhcpcd and DHCP may be clashing but I do not know how to uninstall.
In the blfs bootscripts, make uninstall-dhcp or make uninstall-dhcpcd. -- Bruce -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
