The kernel on the LFS LiveCD is rather old and definitely doesn't boot
either my laptop or my desktop that I used to do build testing. Also
it still refers to ide devices as hdx# instead of sdx#. (It also does
this for some SATA controllers.)
Probably needs an update. I doubt it will matter too much if it isn't updated.

I've used QEMU to build LFS, and didn't experience any problem
with the mouse.

You have found the bank of Larn.

Gateway should be the address of your router. And I think you want an IP that is on the same subnet as the gateway. So IP and Gateway should differ only in the last octet. hth. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Re: Recommended LiveCD?
I'm doing it inside VirtualBox and I want a LiveCD that supports
VirtualBox's "absoulute pointing device" that is a feature that allows you
to use mouse pointer integration even without the guest additions installed
which is quite useful when working from a LiveCD.
The LFS LiveCD glitches with this feature (Position desync) so if there is a
different LiveCD that won't require a lot of modification to build LFS with
it that this feature works fine with will be quite helpful.
