I am using Debian as host system and i am following LFS 6.7 book. Everything went on fine till chapter-8.4.1. Now when i try the following command in chapter-8.4.2 grub-install --grub-setup=/bin/true /dev/sda there is no progress in installation of grub. The pointer just keeps blinking. Cannot proceed further. Regards, Madhan M
