I wanted to install LFS on a fresh partition and this was the only unused SATA
drive I had. I had small IDE drives, but this computer doesn't have an IDE
interface.
And when it comes to cost now $40 gets you double this size. I could
repartition the drive, but I am trying to avoid it. I install

Well, not *too* big, in the sense of causing problems. "Unnecessarily
big" might be a better wording, and I'd agree.
Separating data from applications is practically a necessity when it
comes to

A little more. I didn't list the size of the disks because I didn't think it
was important, but since the legacy GRUB may not be able to handle them:
sda is small, I am not at the machine until Sunday or Monday.
sdb is one TB that I just store stuff on.
sdc is the disk with LFS on it. It is 1.

Let me start over and maybe I can make things clear.
I built the LFS using Centos 5.4, running with the old GRUB. Here is my
system layout:
/dev/sda has Centos with its swap being the 2nd partiton.
/dev/sdb I use to download files and store things.
/dev/sdc is two partitions, sdc1 and sdc2

First step when having a problem is re read the relevant section,
slowly, carefully, and look for typos, mistakes, spelling errors,
etc.

I finshed compiling everything but can't boot. Here's my problem.
I have two internal disks and one external:
/dev/sda
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdc
In reading the book, it said to set aside a partition for LFS. I did, it was
the 2nd partition of sdc, sdc2
So as one of my last steps I set up grub, but it w

I have a livecd 6.3 and book 6.3. the computer I am installing it on is
somewhat old, and thus 1 SBU = about one hour. I can't figure out how to
shut down the machine without losing everything i was working on. I do not

I download a copy of KNOPPIX and burn a disc. I also like sysrecuecd.
