Hello,

Using the SVN for LFS - SVN-20120725
Everything builds just dandy and passes make check where applicable
EXCEPT for grub 2.0
I attached full log of configure and also added at the end where it
fails but of interest -

Matt, are you sure you want this one? There's probably not any real

Hi,
Thanks for a great book. I have just set up my first LFS; I had great
fun and all is fine.
I hit a couple of issues setting up Grub that, looking through the
lfs-support archive, have bitten a few others and wondered if it is
worth mentioning in the book.

Ew! :-)
/dev/root is *never* a real device, and anything that requires it to be
is broken by design. There were several long arguments a
d make: Make a rescue CD instead of a rescue floppy disk.
Reason? Floppies are SO out of fashion these days, and most computers
these days don't even have a floppy drive. I would modify the
instructions to create a CD image and use Xorriso to burn it.

Hi,
The last instruction of the grub setup states that you should use:

Running this on my system yields to:

No device is specified.

Hi there.
When updating to e2fsprogs-1.40.6 like LFS devel did, I noticed my
system(s) no longer booting via grub. Slightly inconvenient ;-)
After digging around a while I found that mke2fs has changed the inode

Okay, the grub-shell uses 'root' to tell grub on which partition to find
