Thanks. For those that don't know, you can read systemd version of the book online at [1]. Please note that I've just applied systemd specific changes to lfs development book which was the most current at the time, but didn't yet run any test build. I hope to do one during the weekend though. That said, current build instructions might or might not work correctly. Any feedback or help is welcome, being it a typo fix, instructions fix or even instructions addition. Just send a message to this mailing list or create ticket in lfs trac. LFS systemd branch will continue to share most of the packages with lfs development version and the ones not available in lfs with blfs svn version of the book. I'll try and make sure that differences between lfs non-systemd and systemd branches are minimal when it comes to shared stuff. Note that systemd version is currently missing a page which installs and describes lfs network scripts package, which is entirely systemd specific, although it uses same networking scripts as lfs does. There's a ticket already for that one and I hope I'll get to it soon enough. Given that everything goes well, I was hoping that we can release LFS systemd book along with the next stable LFS book. It's too early now to speak about that though :D There won't be any BLFS book which follows lfs systemd book, at least not maintained by me. Project is big enough that it's too hard for me alone to maintain it. I might, however, create some (not strictly a book) instructions on how to modify some blfs packages to utilize systemd correctly. I do not promise anything yet. Have fun with testing. I hope someone finds this piece of work useful.
