almost done ..
Everything is pretty much working fine, save some net problems:
On bootup, I get the following errors: Bringing up the loopback interface...modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module net-pf-4 modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module net-pf-5 modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module net-pf-9 ..[a few lines late].. Brining up the eth0 interface...SIOCSIFADDR: No such device eth0: unknown interface: No such device SIOCSIFBRADDR: No such device eth0: unknown interface: No such device SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device ifconfig shows only the loopback However, after logging in, if I 'insmod tulip' and then '/etc/init.d/ethnet restart', ifconfig loopback and eth0 First, what is up with the 'net-pf' modules and loopback? Second, how can I get tulip to load properly? |
The net-pf errors are in the lfs faq. http://linuxfromscratch.org/faq/#AEN362
And you could add the line insmod tulip to one of your bootscripts. Or you could add it to the ethnet script. When it brings the network interface up you could do a insmod and when it brings it down do a rmmod. |
The FAQ! Duh! Sorry. :)
I tried adding it to ethnet, I must have just done it a bit wrong -- hey, it was late in the night (actually, morning by then). I'll do it again. |

I thought I had set up the kernel for auto-loading modules. I'll look into it again tonight.
I am going to be setting up another LFS system today, for a work workstation. I was so impressed with performance last night mucking around that I am convinced of the benefits of LFS over distributions. Tonight I am going to put X and blackbox on that machine, see how they run -- I am sure it will be slick. |
