I downloaded the iso and booted it in a qemu virtual machine. So far it works well. I noticed that most of the package versions are the minimum as specified in Host System Requirements. That's good. The exceptions I saw: Minimum ISO Grep-2.5.1a 2.5.1 (not sure if that is really 2.5.1a or not) Tar-1.18 1.26 Xz-5.0.0 5.0.4 I don't think these are a problem. I was able to start sshd and log into the system remotely, but only after I created a new user. We might want to create a default lfsuser with a lfsuser password. There is also no root password. I don't know if that's an issue for initial setup or not. I'm also thinking about creating an lfs-73-qemu.img file for users to use directly with qemu without going through a live cd boot. That would allow a faster start when using qemu and easy replication. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
