Hi Dan, I was wondering how it was going with secure boot and LFS? I have reached the 6.48. GRUB-2.00 stage of my re-build of LFS 7.4 using my new scripts and wrappers. For this stage, since I already have secure boot disabled and am booting the traditional way, I think I will just follow the LFS

Hi Bruce, Yeah sorry I liked to the wrong diffutils log but I later found the one from chapter 6 with the same issue. It is chapter 6 where I noticed it in my project however. Thanks, Robert Taylor On Tue, Nov 26, 2013 at 11:19 AM, Bruce Dubbs wrote: > Rob Taylor wrote: > > 6.42.
