Having successfully installed coreutils, I rebuilt acl and ran the test suite. Initially I got 47 errors! According to BLFS, the acl test suite requires a daemon user who is also in the bin group (currently section 6.6 of LFS-systemd does not include this user in /etc/passwd). Adding it reduced the number of errors from 47 to 10. However I have not been able to reduce them any further. BLFS also recommends giving bin and daemon proper home directories (I used /bin and /sbin respectively) and a shell, but this had no effect in my case. As far as I know, the acl and user_xattr options required for acl to work on the mounted lfs partition are built into the ext4 driver that my host kernel (3.10.17) uses and do not need to be set explicitly. When I do set them, they are accepted silently but don't show up in /proc/mounts, whereas noacl and nouser_xattr do. I attach an edited log file containing the actual test errors. I need to know if they are important and, if so, how to get rid of them. Drop the root-tests, they are broken anyways.

Re: [lfs-support] error when trying to cross compile glibc-2.19
On 19.4.2014 7:42, mar...@byteanywhere.com wrote: Hi Thanks all for the replays. I am trying to create a cross compiler using the steps for building LFS when the temporary tools are build. Those steps should allow me to use the cross compiler, but obviously i am not doing something correctly. I just used the path from cross-tools package 0.43 but not using anything from there. One reason for which i am trying to create the cross compiler, is that i saw you build for LFS gcc 4.8.2 and glibc-2.19, which are not supported anymore by that tool or others. This are the steps is used. I didnt created a lfs user, but if you think thats the cause of the problem i can create it and try that way as well. The host is x86_64 with kernel 3.7.10 I have a symlink between: ls -ld /tools lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 47 Apr 17 08:08 /tools - /home/marian/crosstool/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/ export PREFIX=/home/marian/crosstool/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu export TARGET=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu The trick is in this line. To cross compile glibc for the same arch, target triplet needs to be different or you are nothing other but simply compiling. I ran into similar issue when I bootstrapped 32 bit glibc on 64 bit os. That's one reason lfs uses $LFS_TGT-*lfs*-linux-gnu, not $LFS_TGT-*unknown*-linux-gnu for pass1 of both binutils and gcc. export SYSROOT=/home/marian/crosstool/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/sys-root export PATH=/tools/bin:/bin:/usr/bin 1.

As Bruce is even one of the (co-?)authors of systemd, the knowledge is already in the house. Why would (x)LFS stick to sysvinit while the rest of the world is moving to systemd? I doubt he ever contributed any code to upstream systemd. If you by systemd mean the LFS systemd book, then no, he is one of the maintainers of LFS with sysvinit, on which LFS systemd is based. Of course, simplicity might be one reason. After all sysvinit system is much easier to understand then the somewhat more complex systemd system.

[lfs-support] Systemd branch now considered usable
Hello there, After many months since lfs systemd branch was created, I am pleased to announce that I consider it being usable for everyone that wants to use it. I've managed to add missing bits to the branch today and doing that I've finished what it was necessarry to bring it up to par with current lfs development. There are some minor things missing like dependencies for new packages, but I do not consider it critical to affect anything related to the system built using the mentioned instructions. In another thread, Bruce mentioned that: We plan on the next LFS version on March 1st with a package freeze probably around mid-February. We will try to follow LFS freeze and release date and if it seems possible, we will release lfs-systemd-stable whatever the next stable version is along with lfs-stable. For anyone out there who has spare time and motivation, I'd like to test the instructions and report back if there are any problems. I will also accept any fixes that may concern lfs systemd, be it a spelling or gramatical fix, instructions fix or even instructions enhancements. You can clone lfs-systemd book using svn co svn://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/LFS/branches/systemd To create a patch, just change what's necessary and do svn diff somename.patch and send the patch either to me directly, to lfs-dev development list or attach it to lfs trac ticket. Please specify systemd as version in lfs trac. Since I am not native English speaker, I expect that there will be many gramatical or spelling mistakes, especially in chapter 7, where the most changes occoured. For anyone that wants to read the book online can do so by going to http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/systemd/ Latest daily regenerated book is also available for download as html and pdf from http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/systemd/ Please allow it at least 12 hours to regenerate and include my latest changes. Thanks to LFS team, specificaly Bruce and Matt and everyone else who contributed to LFS book since at first Matt's, and later mine work on lfs systemd was based on it. Also, big thanks to BLFS team for maintaining systemd specific packages in BLFS, from which the instructions in lfs systemd were based.

Thanks in advance, Seba * It is indeed grub menu of the usb drive and not grub located on my laptop HD.

I think that I followed the instruction and this is not the first time
I have built the X11 server. I started building XFree86. Everyting
appeared to go OK but when I started it for the first time with
startx it opened with TWM and looked OK but the mouse and the

X is installed with PREFIX=/usr/X11R7 Which is where I installed it
last time although on a different disk.
I checked the X log. The module path appears correct:
[ 35004.515] (==) ModulePath set to /usr/X11R7/lib/xorg/modules
The configure file for the mouse: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/mouse-0.conf:
Section InputDevice
Identifier Mouse0
Driver evdev
Option Protocol IMPS/2
Option Device /dev/input/mice
Option Buttons 5
Option ZAxisMapping 4 5
Option Name Logitech M100
EndSection
looks OK, but the X log reports:
[ 35012.524] (II) config/udev: Adding input device Logitech USB
Optical Mouse (/dev/input/mouse0)
[ 35012.524] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device.
and the mouse and the keyboard simply do not work with X although they
work fine in text mode.
I suggest removing the config file and try the defaults. Make sure that
you built the evdev driver. It should be in
/usr/X11R7/lib/xorg/modules/input.
Well, Bruce, since I now have my new NEC flat screen hooked up as well
as yet another mouse to be destroyed by the cats. I removed the
xorg.conf files. Might still need some configuration for my keyboard
as I have an original (but late model) IBM 101 key click keyboard
(buckling spring technology) and the result was that ...
Well, the result was exactly the same. The last two lines of the X
log were the same and neither the mouse or the keyboard worked.
xf86-input-evdev provides default config files installed in
/usr/X11R7/share/X11/xorg.conf.d.
The mouse-0.conf should also be removed.
To customize the keyboard or mouse cp the default evdev config file
10-evdev.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d and make your changes there, for
instance:
...
MatchIsKeyboard on
Option XkbModel pc101
...
Pierre
Just a tip - instead of using xorg configuration files, you can use udev
rule for setting keyboard rules in Xorg.
cat /etc/udev/rules.d/64-xorg-xkb.rules EOF
ACTION!=add|change, GOTO=xorg_xkb_end
SUBSYSTEM!=input, GOTO=xorg_xkb_end
KERNEL!=event*, GOTO=xorg_xkb_end
# import keyboard layout from /etc/default/keyboard
ENV{ID_INPUT_KEY}==?*, IMPORT{file}=/etc/default/keyboard
LABEL=xorg_xkb_end
EOF
cat /etc/default/keyboard EOF
# The following variables describe your keyboard and can have the same
# values as the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant and XkbOptions options
# in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
XKBMODEL=pc105
XKBLAYOUT=ba
XKBVARIANT=
XKBOPTIONS=

Adjust it to suit your needs.

Re: [lfs-support] distinct /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 dirs
On 02/27/2013 07:24 PM, Frans de Boer wrote: Dear all, The book allows creation if 32-bit systems as well as 64-bit. However, on 64-bit systems the library directory is still called /usr/lib pointed to from the symlink /usr/lib64. I case I want a system which can handle mainly 64-bit programs and on occasion a 32-bit program, I need the two libraries separated. This applies of course also for the root based /lib and /lib64 directories. I tried giving the parameter '--libdir=/usr/lib64' to the configure script. But I see at the end of chapter 5, that the 64-bit library was riddled with links to the 32-bit library. This is not a problem as long as it affects only the programs in the /tools directory, but I saw the same at the root. I searched the document, but could not find a way to solve this. Could someone give me a pointer where I might have gone wrong or what else I can/should do? Regards, Frans. Bruce already responded, but as a side note, you can use /lib32 and /usr/lib32 for 32bit libraries on 64bit OS where /lib64 /usr/lib64 is symlink to /lib and /usr/lib respectively. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Freetype, Fontconfig and Dejavu fonts can be ommited, but you will get ugly fonts. My guess is that it can be built on standard LFS, too. It would need Expat, XML::Parser and Intltool from what I know. Why? Useful for people who build their software in VT but don't really like it (like me). Terminal is really nice in Weston. There are some demos in clients directory in weston source. It's definitely smaller than Xorg, requires more or less the same deps (well, maybe minus libffi and mtdev in some cases + Cairo (which is essential in modern X software)). It needs a fbdev driver - be it drmfb or whatever. drmfb drivers are provided by KMS drivers (i915, nouveau, radeon and vmwgfx). I've tested it with vmwgfx - VMware Virtual Graphics Driver. I built LFS Systemd in a VM. If you are going for X, you might need to rebuild Cairo later. What else?

[lfs-support] LFS SVN-20130125 + Systemd HowTo
Hello, I have taken some time to write a howto for LFS + Systemd.
The instructions follow LFS BOOK versioned SVN-20130125 with additions
from BLFS BOOK versioned 2013-01-26.
Packages are installed in same order as alwas, mentioned versions were
used without any modifications to the LFS book ones. I did some
diversions and I've mentioned them below.
Packages were added in specified place for a reason, I think I explained
it for attr, acl and libcap2.
Howto starts from Chapter 6, assuming everything else has been done as
before.

--disable-systemd is still there because Systemd requires D-Bus and
D-Bus requires Systemd for certain functionality only. It does not see
any use in LFS since it uses logind which we will disable in lfs because
it would need PAM to work like it should.
D-Bus should be recompiled in BLFS for dbus-launch binary with Xorg
Libraries as dependency and --disable-systemd should be removed there
after Systemd has been fully rebuilt for BLFS (Including PAM and some
