Hello,
Many thanks to the team for 8.3 Release 'Well done".
Just to let know to the list, I have a 8.3 liveCD and PXE build
using the LFS book and available at URL
https://osukiss.safe.ca//downloads.php
Packaging used is RPM and yum.
[..]
A lot of the packages I see (e.g. crond, atd, dovecot, etc) are not
needed if the iso is to be used as a rescue system. About the only
things I would want are ssh, wget, and a text browser like links.
It would also be better to have a dhcpcd available, but not started
automatically at boot.
Perhaps there should be a few command line utilities also like pciutils,
usbutils, net-tools, gdisk, parted, etc.

Suggestion from Bruce, have been implemented.
I generated an ISO, which should be usefull in
case you need to fix your LFS.
yum and rpm is included within the ISO, such,
if a tools is missing, you can download it easy
enough. (size is 334 Mbytes)
URL:
https://okrepo.safe.ca/osukiss/8.3/isos/LFS-8.3-rescue-x86_64.iso
Hoping that help LFS users.
Much better. I was able to boot this on my laptop. It takes about 30
seconds to copy and set things up. The iso size, only 334 MiB, is nice.
There are still a few issues:
1. The 'which' command is not present. The workaround is to use 'type -p'
2. lspci is not present.
3. I'd like a way to set a default for language during the boot sequence
and possibly a font. I like to use terminus fonts, specifically in my
case ter-128n. http://terminus-font.sourceforge.net/
4. It does not recognize either my wired or wireless card. The output
of 'ls /sys/class/net' is only 'lo'. The wireless issue is probably
because firmware (iwlwifi-7260-17.ucode) is not available. However, I
do not think that you should need to install firmware on the iso.
$ lspci|grep -i net
01:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (rev 73)
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR8161 Gigabit Ethernet
(rev 10)
My kernel config for the wired connection is:
CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_ATHEROS=y
CONFIG_ATL2=m
CONFIG_ATL1=m
CONFIG_ATL1E=m
CONFIG_ATL1C=m
CONFIG_ALX=m
The ALX module is loaded in my case.
$ lsmod|grep alx
alx 40960 0
mdio 16384 1 alx
I will try this on a more generic system tomorrow at school.
Great work so far.
