Hi all,
I am a first time LFS builder and I think I am within reach of getting my
own
uber-optimized custom Linux kernel for Core 2 Duo (the processor I chose
when doing make menuconfig for the kernel).
But I am seeing the following issues as I load LFS.
An admission first: I did not understand much of chapter 7 of LFS-6.5.
By that I mean I understood so little of what was being talked about there
(Udev etc) that I could not accept
what I was being asked to do. Hence, I might have glossed over some steps.
Now, to the issues:
1. Starting kernel log daemon [FAIL]
My guess is that the solution lies in section 7.6 (Configuring sysklogd
script)
2. INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes.
I have absolutely no idea where this message is coming from.
3. On doing Ctrl + Alt + Del, I get the following:
shutdown: /dev/initetl: No such file or directory. Again, no idea on how
to fix this.
4. Message: Interface eth1 doesn't exist [WARN].
I guess the problem is with missing driver for my internal wireless card
(manufacturer: Broadcom).
I have compiled and installed the driver in the past. So I could try
doing that again assuming that
my LFS kernel can auto-detect the USB port (which I would need). But am I
guessing on the right track?
I really want to see this kernel working so that I can move on to BLFS,
optimize that too (KDE etc) and then see
just how much faster than a standard distribution can I get my system to be.
Thanks for your help
Abhinav.
