From your starting point, you're trying to do too many steps in the one go. Get systemd booting, _without_ LVM, LABEL/UUID in fstab, (net-booting), (nfs/network-filesys), networking (other than lo), initramfs, Xorg, ... &c&c. And then, and only then, start adding things from that list, probably 1 at a time, given your starting point here. Does LFS syd (sysd/systemd) by-the-book work ok for you? I'd suggest that be your primary ref for reading. akh -- -- 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.
