Quote from Linux From Scratch - Version SVN-20200721 / Preface / vi.
Rationale for Packages in the Book:
"As stated earlier, the goal of LFS is to build a complete and usable
foundation-level system. ..."
If LFS cannot be booted on modern pc, the statement above should be
changed to "... usable foundation-level system on LEGACY computers
only."
Otherwise information in preface creates a false assurance that
building LFS is enough to boot and continue with BLFS on some modern
target system.
