Yikes! But is it still that hard? I thought that a lot of those issues were resolved these days. Eg. don't the LFS console scripts properly handle switching all the virtual consoles to UTF-8 now? > What are your reasons for wanting the hassle? Masochism, same reason for running LFS. :-) But seriously, I thought that UTF-8 was pretty much the default now and the LFS 6.5 book discusses UTF-8 locales without suggesting that they're particularly troublesome, so I assumed it wouldn't involve too much pain. I'll postpone thoughts of UTF-8 until LFS 6.5 is up and running.
