Notes say: To load the CD contents to RAM with the "toram" option, the minimum required amount of RAM is 512 MB. If you have less than 768 MB of RAM, add swap when the CD boot finishes -- a good idea anyway. Alternatively, it is possible to boot the "livecd" from disk. The short version is under BOOTING FROM ISO IMAGE in http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/livecd/documentation.html I made a script to remember how http://docs.google.com/View?id=dg7ck9hb_135djs6xvrn I'm sure you know that jhalfs provides an alternative to your script. I understand concern for clean migration path and NIC/network. Just thinking out loud ... if jhalfs can build it using the host system, then the scripts must have a fault ... but if the scripts can build it using the livecd, then the host system must have a fault. Is it the host kernel config, the host glibc, the host gcc, the scripts, or what? -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
