Resume LFS build at chapter 7 using book 7.2
Hi all. I recently started a build of LFS (book 7.2) after a few half harted attempts a good while ago. I left my computer on for days so i could keep my place and, well i'm not looking forward to my electricity bill!
So i finished chapter 6 and shutdown my computer. I'm using slackware (14.00 i beleive it is?) for the hosts system, and when i mount my hard drive where i've been building my LFS system and chroot to it etc etc, i type uname -a and it gives me the host system still. I'm REALLY new to building LFS and want to make sure i can continue the build as it took me 4 days to get this far. What i'm asking is, can anyone tell me the exact steps (or better yet commands) to resume my build from the very beginning of chapter 7 (book 7.2) Thanks in advance, Alastair |
Hi
So I presume you have a mountpoint for lfs at /mnt/lfs, make sure it is mounted with mount command. log in as root check that lfs is in the path echo $LFS Then do parts 6.2.2 through to end of page. Then chroot in chapter 6.65 |
Yeah got the mount point as exactly that, also have the echo $LFS showing /mnt/lfs.
Thanks for the quick reply! |
Glad it all work out
Mark thread as solved, thread tools at top if all fixed |
just going to give it a go now. will let you know how i get on.
|
ok, done all of that and the uname -a command returns Linux slack 3.2.29
this as it should be? or did i completely misunderstand the part in the book when it was talking about entering the virtual kernel...if thats even what it said haha! |
You should be in the lfs root dir now, I have never run the uname command when at this point.
|
ok, yeah looks like i'm in the correct root. Thanks very much for your help!
never got this far before and wanted to make sure i was carrying on from the right point. |
Hope all gose well
