I don't know how systemd works, but since I think I "bumped up against" some of the things in my recent experiences with console-kit, polkit and gnome-polkit, I want to learn more about handling them. After reading all the posts recently about systemd, I thought I would try it in conjunction with my UEFI research. I'll be ready to start pretty soon--after I get my {,B}LFS system where I want it.
In addition, I will be more than happy to proof-read. I return your wishes for this season--how ever you like to have them offered. I state it that way because I'm not politically correct, but won't say what I want to because I also happen to be polite. :) Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
