MesaLib provides libgl.so (not sure if they also provide the .h files,
but that makes sense).
I think what the directions mean, is not to compile the optional
mesaglut tarball, just mesalib/demo's (if you want demo&#
.0 is going to be using, or if it is still a work in
progress.
I was a bit lost with the latest change, as to why it does not use
/tools/lib or /tools/lib64 without -B as that would allow me to use my
old work without deviating too far from LFS.

On my system, if I want to build a program 32bit, I could use
PATH=/usr/lib/32/bin:${PATH} CC="gcc -m32" CXX="g++ -m32"
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/32/pkgconfig
if I want to build 64bit, I would not have to deviate from LFS/BLFS,
except in a few odd cases.
he nodes.
This would allow the boot scripts to be simplified, and allow booting
with init=/bin/bash w/o additional setup (Other then mounting /
readwrite).

silly question, but what was the reason for only installing part of
perl? I know we don't need it, but we rarely go out of our way to
just install what we need in
y it chose those two test
programs. If it's pkg-config, perhaps setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH is all
we need. (of course if this is my fault, then that doesn't matter).

By default, it does not set the time.
There is a optional kernel option (Introduced in the last 10-20 kernel
releases, can't recall when), CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS that will set the system
time to the hwclock time.

Another thought (one I have not actually tested, forgive me if It's
not possible) is trigger only block devices in the first pass, then
try devices/subsystems on the 2nd pass?
It looks like udevadm trigger could match "specific" devices, what
about something like
udevadm trigger --type=devices --subsystem-match block
udevadm trigger --type=subsystems --subsystem-match block
mountfs
udevadm trigger --type=devices
udevadm trigger --type=subsystems

It sounds like it might have enough adaptation that it could be
considered a viable replacement. It also has developers willing to
work with distributors to ensure it does what they require. The fact
it's mentioned on freedesktop.org is also a + in my books.

reiserfs is mainline, even though reiserfs4 is not. Couldn't hurt
saying what it is, and where to find the tools.

ps. I am still running on an ancient version of the lfs-bootscripts,
just copied over mountfs/checkfs for the lvm parts. (Only started
playing with lvm a few weeks ago).

Hate posting this after the first fixes were out, but came across one
more problem. If you are using lvm for swap, the mountfs stop script
fails to bring down the lvm array's. I fixed this on my local system
by moving the swap bootscript before mountfs on shutdown.

Back when that text was added to the book, --strip-all removed
something from the static libraries that is needed to link to them
(basically making them useless). Symbol table perhaps?
For testing, you would need to move the .so

I think this would fulfill our requirements, especially if more
problems occur with supporting standalone udev.

-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B. It was difficult finding all
the info I needed, but https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB2 gave

I would love to see things as much in sync as possible between LFS and
systemd LFS.
I wonder if we should switch to using sulologin and message from
util-linux... not sure what we would loose, but if it has feature
parity, I would prefer it.

Not much out there even looks for the lib64 folder (I think the only
