Section 7.4, last sentence (grammar and spelling):
in negligable -> is negligible
Thanks.
Section 7.4.1, second paragraph (tense):
Last two sentences should be past tense again (from: The devfs file system also suffers from race ...) unless of course these problems are still manifest in the present implementation in which case it reads a little odd.
As mentioned, those race conditions are a product of devfs' design, hence will be present as long as devfs is. Could you explain your POV that "it reads a little odd"? To me, the whole of 7.4.1 is in the past tense (and rightly so, given its title of "History").
Thinking about it some more, I'm not sure we need all of that historical stuff in there anyway, simply explain how we handle devices and modules in LFS and leave it at that.
All of a sudden section 7.4 goes to third person (and second). Not that I have anything against the more personal approach, just pointing out an inconsistency.
I can't think of how this could be reworded, though I agree that consistency is important. Care to prepare a patch?
