FWIIW: I am building a system quite similar to LFS: http://kaarpux.kaarposoft.dk/ When I started to use qemu-kvm I ran into a bootstrap problem. Sorry, but I do not remember the exact circumstances or error messages. But the solution was to run qemu-kvm with: qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu SandyBridge [...] (My host is also SandyBridge) Since then, I have had no problems at all building/bootstrapping in the qemu-kvm VM. /Henrik -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
