Linux From Scratch

[Nathan England]

Sorry for the re-post but I sent the original from a different email
address. I'm not sure if it went through or not...

Hello hello!

I needed to build an LFS system for some personal projects yet again. I
looked and looked but could not find an already built LFS system ready to
go. I tried using jhalfs latest version, but it only works against LFS 6.3.
The newer versions have a lot of problems and I did not want to spend all
day fixing jhalfs problems, nor did I want to spend all day compiling LFS
from scratch. In the end, I needed a newer LFS than 6.3, so I built it by
hand, which brings me to my current announcement.

I have put a completed LFS system (up to chapter 7) on my web server for
your download! It is from the LFS development snapshot, 20110515-svn. It has
the latest of just about everything, glibc-2.13 and the 2.6.38.6 kernel. If
you would like to use it please download it and have at it! It is completed
up through chapter 06, then I stopped because I need to modify the boot
scripts and replace grub2 with grub-legacy. So you will pick up from chapter
07.

I hope this helps anyone who is in need for an LFS and does not have the
time to build it manually!

I have it broken into 3 files.

lfs-svn-20110515-complete.tar.bz2  - this is the complete ready to go
system.
lfs-svn-20110515-sources.tar.bz2 - this is just the source packages.
lfs-svn-20110515-tools.tar.bz2 - this is just the /tools dir so you can use
for your compiling pleasure!

and of course the pdf of the book I used is up there too, along with MD5s of
each file for verification.
