I built and booted a successful LFS 7.6 on an Xubuntu 14.10 host.
I then copied the files to a different machine also running 14.10
Once it had been added to grub it booted OK except for an error message
(during the boot sequence) reporting that eth0 could not be found.
The NIC - which is recognised by the LFS live CD - is Atheros Attansic
L1 Gigabit Ethernet (rev b0)
I recompiled the kernel to include support for this NIC (and other
Atheros cards) but still get the same error message at boot time.
Any suggestions, anyone?

On my computers when I copy LFS-7.6 files to a
second computer, the files retain a record of the
hardware used for eth0 on the first
computer. When the second computer is booted up,
it sees this information in the file:
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
and it renames eth0 to something else, in my case
eth1. Perhaps that is causing the "eth0 cannot be
found" error. If that is the case, you can either
edit or even delete the 70-persistent-net.rules
file (it is automatically generated).

Richard -
I deleted the 70-persistent-net.rules file and rebooted.
Worked!
Many thanks.
Anthony.
