your response was:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I found that BLFS-9.0 uses elogind-241.3 and BLFS-9.1 uses elogind-243.4
which I am sorry I did not notice. However, except for instruction to
'make install-elogind'
the instructions are similar. Till I used 'make install-elogind', Docker
refused to load. I sgree that Docker and Jellyfin are not normally used by
LFS enthusiasts.
Your reply has also mentioned:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Perhaps, I would not have followed this order, as I had problem with JS60
as I had mentioned in another message.
You have also mentioned:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am to state that I rebuilt elogind-243.4 and just added 'make
install-elogind' after copying BLFS script. Docker started working
immediately.
Also, I built as user lfs and not in chroot, if I remeber correctly. Also,
I did not reconfigure Linux kernel. I just rechecked as per the Book.
Talking about chrooting, will it be too much if I request that a few lines
can be added in the Book on how to start using as user lfs? I struggled
quite a lot before I could make use of user to build packages. The
paragraphs containg /etc/skel and 'useradd' are sketcy unlike other parts
which are simple to follow.
Thanks and regards.
