ok. not really a problem.
except for the system requirements like {d,b}ash or {g,}awk there is no
other package where the host has to be modified. that's why i prefer the
sed instead of copying the headers.

That's a little difficult to work with if Xorg isn't working. How do you grep a binary log? I was going to say 'me too' to all of your post, Bruce, but then, in trying to find the list of 18(!) guides on how to use the various components of systemd came across http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/journalctl.html which describes how to access the binary logs. The features it provides all seem pretty neat and all accessible from the command line. So, that's one less thing for me to hold against it. OK, let's discuss this. My first comment is that when you have custom programs like this, the author has to think about everything an admin might ever want. What if the admin wants something the author didn't think about? It's open source, they can just extend it :-) Second is that you are using different tools from other logs such as apache, ftp, mail and any other application that writes a log. From my brief reading, it looked as if, if the service is controlled by systemd, the journal will collate its logs. In this respect, it's a lot like things like logstash (http://logstash.net/). I *think* logstash keeps its own copy of the logs, thereby doubling logging capacity, and then adds an indexing overhead as well. Again, I *think* journalctl just stores the one copy, and will presume it also needs additional space for indexing. Whilst logstash requires the admin to configure the inputs, filters and outputs, it looks as though journalctl works out of the box. Third, if the logs were ascii, the bells and whistles in the link above could be accomplished with a bash script fairly easily. Maybe my bash-fu is a bit rusty, but collating multiple sources of logs together, then filtering them back out again to drill down with the flexibility that journalctl provides would have me googling for a piece of software to do it after about an hour, I think :-) Note that for home-user systems, I wouldn't bother with journalctl at all, but on the enterprise environment's I have to support, I'd want something like this to make cross-service log analysis much easier. About the only really sensible argument is that binary logs use less disk space. In the days of TB drives, even that isn't a big deal. I'm not sure I'd even class that as a sensible argument. To me the whole systemd philosophy moves away from user knows best to developer knows best. That's just like MS and Apple. The difference of course is that systemd *is* open source and we don't have to use it. No, we don't have to use it, and I'm still not suggesting anyone does :-) I'm just pointing out that I can see the utility in journalctl. My jury's still out on systemd's service and resource management though; and I don't think you can have either resource or log management without the service management component.

[lfs-support] Grub 2.0 problem
since about 1 year i am using the same harddisk. as the procution system
is a little outdated now, i wanted to make a 'fresh' disk.
to boot from this disk i had to start an ubuntu livecd and install grub
from this cd. the systems (i have built both 32bit and 64bit) can boot
and run fine.
but i can't install my own compiled grub as a boot-loader!
/dev/sda1 = /boot
/dev/sda2 = / (for 32bit)
/dev/sda3 = / (for 64bit)
/dev/sda4 = extended
/dev/sda5 = SWAP
/dev/sda6 = DATA
booting the system with ubuntus grub works fine. running grub install
/dev/sda from a chroot (dev, proc, sys are mounted with --bind) says
everyting is fine but booting results in the grub console with:
GRUB loading.
Welcome to GRUB!
error: disk 'hd0,msdos1' not found.
Entering rescue mode...
'ls' just shows a newline - an empty list!
rebooting the live-cd, reinstalling grub, putting my grub.conf into
place - the system boots fine.
i built grub as in the book.
grub-install /dev/sda has no errors:
Installatoin finished. no error reported
grub from ubuntu can boot either partitions (32 or 64bit), so does grub
from parted magic.
i tried both grub versions i built (32/64) but none can boot, both just
enter the console as mentionned above.
grub.conf is very basic and works fine with grub from ubuntu and parted
magic.
** cut
set root='(hd0,1)'
set timeout=10
insmod ext2
menuentry linux 32bit {
linux /boot/kernel-3.4.18-t32 root=/dev/sda2
}
menuentry linux 64bit {
linux /boot/kernel-3.4.18-t64 root=/dev/sda3
}
** cut
ubuntu installs into
/boot/grub and /boot/grub/locale where the modules are in /boot/grub
lfs has an additional /boot/grub/i386-pc where the modules are. i
already copied all from /boot/grub/i386-pc to /boot/grub but no change.
the boot symlink exists as required for a boot partition.
google was no help - i probably don't know what to ask for...
i'm trying to get grub up now for more than a week and have no more
ideas what i could try.
any help welcome!

If /boot is a separate partition, then the linux lines should look like:
linux /kernel-3.4.18-t64 root=/dev/sda3 ro
note the you don't specify /boot there. From the viewpoint of grub,
there is no /boot directory.
I suspect that you installed grub from ubuntu without /boot mounted as a
separate partition.
One thing to do is to drop to the grub command line and do:
grub ls (hd0,1)
For the ubuntu instances, try:
linux (hd0,2)/boot/kernel-3.4.18-t32 root=/dev/sda2
linux (hd0,3)/boot/kernel-3.4.18-t64 root=/dev/sda3
The trick is to know which version of the grub configuration file is
being used. A simple 'grub install /dev/sda' will assume that it is
using /boot/grub/grub.cfg from where /boot is located when the install
is run.
Check this and let us know if you need more help.
