My (rough) idea for the future: put together two different versions of LFS
according to my needs. One for server (without X), one for full-blown
desktop. That possible?

Hi,
I spent the best part of this rainy morning working through the LFS book
slowly, step by step, encouraged by three purring cats and my loving wife
bringing me coffee occasionally.
I played around a bit with the LiveCD and found it excellent. Booted without
problems, edited xorg.conf (for

The subject says it all. What are the minimal requirements for using the
LiveCD?
In my testing, the LiveCD requires at a minimum 48MB ram to just boot to
console. To be useful, at least 128MB is recommended
. Usually, I use Slackware 10.2 with a stock
2.6.12 kernel from kernel.org tuned to my hardware.
Question to the gurus here: is it better to
a) downgrade my kernel to 2.6.11(.x) or
b) use the patch

LFS 6.1.1 with a Slack 10.2 host?
If you think it's risky, I'd better switch to something known to work.
Unfortunately I'm on dialup, but let's see. My CD cardboard box offers a
Debian Sarge distro, complete on DVD or 14-CD set. Would you recommend that
more as a build host?
Cheers,

Quoting Dan Nicholson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Warning - Slackware 10 has problems acting as a build host. For your
first build you may want to consider a better host distro
He's using Slack 10.2. Why is that a problem? I've never heard this before.
Well, although I really like Slack 10.2
a hard disk install on the LiveCD, but
what about storing config files (like xorg.conf) on a floppy or USB stick?
