Thanks. Tried that without results

Hostname is already set in etc/hostname

Something is not right with your boot scripts. The third boot script run is S08localnet and that runs hostname ${HOSTNAME}. ${HOSTNAME} is set by:

[ -r /etc/hostname ] && HOSTNAME=`cat /etc/hostname`

You keep referring to things like etc/hostname when it should be /etc/hostname. Are those just typos?


Removing the redirection in the mountfs script didn't produce any error
message.

What is the output to the `findmnt` command?

Shutdown -r gives the same reference to the (non-existent) rc.shutdown and
the system locks.

I can find no reference to rc.shutdown on my system. Are you sure you booted into the correct partition?

What is the output of `cat /etc/lfs-release` ?

Re: top posting - I have changed the default in gmail in an attempt to fix
the problem on top posting as default. Has it worked?
