Well, the solution turned out to be my fat-fingering of the /etc/fstab file in the LFS partition. When I looked at it for about the fifth time, I finally saw that I had /dev/sda7 mounted as both / and swap. I fixed it so that /dev/sda6 is mounted as / and /dev/sda7 as swap and all is well, behaving exactly as I had hoped. Thanks to all for the various responses that got me in the right file to spot the error. -- Daryl Lee -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
