Hi [...] when /dev is bind-mounted on $LFS/dev i know (now) why virtual fs like shm:tmpfs and pts:devpts need to be mounted, but all the device-nodes are available from inside chroot without further work. but why /dev/console and /dev/null need to be created before? or do they simply have

[lfs-support] Load kernel first - after initramfs build

2013-08-07 Thread Unix User
Dear list, I use a usb disk for LFS 7.3 installation which is recognized by the host as /dev/sdb - one partition is ext3 (/dev/sdb1) and one swap (/dev/sdb5). Within chroot, I installed grub on /dev/sdb. File /etc/fstab first included /dev/sda1 to mount as / (to refer to the usb disk itself).

Dear Mike, [...] This is a slightly ambiguous error from `ldd'. It means `/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2' cannot be found (which you can see below) as it is not present in the chroot environment. It doesn't mean the binary isn't there. That caught me out when I first saw it too. [...]
