Damn this completely innocent post is getting a lot of hate.. For anyone else out there that thinks about it, I'll clarify what we mean.

First off, I am NOT responsible for the creation of this post, so hear me out there
Second, I don't mean to come across as a douche. My intentions, are to work with someone to help create a Linux From Scratch distro to suit some needs of mine as I had severe issues when I tried so I thought MAYBE asking if someone could work with me in a team project style to make it fast, efficient, and I'll also offer money for the service.
Third, any help is help so if anyone can contribute even slightly, please do say so and I'll do my best to work with you. I look forward to doing so with anyone willing, as a team, together.

Please try not to misunderstand things I say, I have mental issues so it's hard to come across the way I want to without being misunderstood.

I've decided to have a 50th try at building my own LFS using some tips I have recieved so best of luck to me. If I don't reply back here ever again, consider it finished, or I'll post to say it is. If it fails I'll post to say what went wrong and provide detailed explanation of the errors, in the hope that someone might help. Thanks

Well. I'm not dogging you. Just grow some thick skin. It helps when trying to solve problems.

you say you have tried to fix the problems yourself but you dont give details on what problems or what you did to fix them, instead you just think some one is going to do it all for you ( free of charge of course! ), building a complete system takes time and effort, you should try it!

If you have a specific problem post that and give details on what you've tried to fix it and you will get a lot better and more useful replies and people won't get jarred off with yet another poster coming here and demanding help then disappearing never to be seen again and never giving anything back to the community.
if you simply don't want to do it please leave, we don't need bullies here

If you have nothing constructive to say, don't post in the thread.

Would you look at that nice doggo?

No, seriously though, there were no errors. Was working fine. Attempted to boot it up, as told to, and it didn't boot. It simply bootlooped. I let it do so for 50 minutes and gave up so... Anyone willing to help work on this with me, email me at removed. If you wish, I will pay for your services.

I'm closing the thread.

You may ask, why? Well this is why.

I've gotten enough replies from people who don't want to help in the slightest, and seem to derive entertainment from harassing others. Since this thread will most likely never get replies from a person willing to do something other than be a dick to Nyte and I, I'm deciding to close the thread.

Farewell to all of those involved, and a shoutout to rokytnji for giving us a place to start to say the least.

Welcome to LQ. Note that the fora isn't an appropriate place to solicit paid work, but we do have a Job Marketplace for that: http://jobs.linuxquestions.org/

That said, if you have specific issues moving forward that you'd like the community to help with, feel free to post a new thread and we're happy to help. A quick read of http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...#faq_lqwelcome may help as well.
