Hi,
For some reason the complete install went just fine (good job LFS!) but
making the system bootable was a problem:
when I chroot into the system (from the live CD), call grub, I get
errors about not finding the root disk (not a block device).
When I want to check the disk with fdisk or cfdisk, /dev/hdb It can not
be find. When I logout the chroot envirioment fdisk or cfdisk does find
the HD... A puzzel to me. Any thoughts or maybe concrete help on this?

Hi,
Before you re-enter chroot you need to carry out the previous commands
in the book to mount /dev and /proc (IIRC) and run /sbin/udevstart. If
you don't do these things, /dev is basically empty inside chroot...
Go back through chapter 6 and see where the /dev and /proc (possibly
/sys too) are dealt with and repeat those commands before entering
chroot (using the revised chroot, not the earlier one)
