Re: [RFC] New LFS Website
Jeremy Huntwork wrote: Hello Everyone: The LFS Website Team has been working on a new website for the Linux From Scratch community. We have shown it briefly before, but it is now nearly fully functional and filled with content. Our goal with this new site was to produce a simple and readable site that is easy to navigate and easy to maintain. You'll notice that we endeavored to greatly reduce the number of possible links on one page and lead the user through the site by logical grouping of data. Apart from just a redesign in the layout of the site, much has been done in rewriting the backend struture, to reduce maintainance overhead and to allow a more dynamic and up-to-date website. Please visit this new proposed site (follow the link below) and reply to the website mailing list with your thoughts or comments. We would like to hear from the community as to whether they would like to see this new design implemented. http://beta.linuxfromscratch.org/ Thank you, -- Jeremy Huntwork LFS Website Team Looks great! -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
Re: bootup problem - LFS-6.0.
Recently, Somebody Somewhere wrote these words Declan Moriarty wrote: [ -f /dev/.udev.tdb ] exit 0 This is a check for udev _already_ being started Huh? Does the script still really contain this? If you are using a journaled FS mounted read-write at boot, this bug happens: Ext3 mounted ro at boot, I think. http://bugs.linuxfromscratch.org/show_bug.cgi?id=842 Please remove this line, and remove everything except null and console from /dev using either another system or a Live CD. My daughter sent me a LFS-6.0 live cd, but they never sent the Password. The script isn't failing there. I got the comment after that line. The solution was amazingly stupid. /going red (*cough*) The make modules_install was done incorrectly and the modules landed in the host system /blush Should that line still come out? Now udev is doing what I might have predicted. making zillions of pty and tty nodes, but refusing to make for /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd And the shiony new LFS-6.0 still has that expletive deleted cursor problem (see blfs-support) -- With best Regards, Declan Moriarty. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
