Hi Nathan, thanks for your time . follow the steps in hint is able to install . but I got another problems when I did at Step 2 . following is my error message .

I can see a lot of mod under /boot/grub after grub-install . but I fail at grub-mkconfig . the name of my kernel is lfskernel-2.6.30.5 and map is lfskernel-2.6.30.5 --- 09/10/19 (一)，Nathan Coulson <conat...@gmail.com> ： > On Mon, Oct 19, 2009 at 12:52 AM, > kevin631012 <kevin631...@yahoo.com.tw> > wrote: > > Hi all, > > I almost done all steps in LFS but I got a error when > install grub > > > > here is paragraph in chapter 8.4 > > Caution > > This package will only build for x86 and x86_64 > architectures containing 32-bit libs.
