I had noticed some big differences from what I was used to. My last complete LFS build was 6.7. I was going to ask later, but you just let me know. Thanks. > Before I forget.

The comment was that 'ifup' complained that /run/var/bootlog didn't exist.
I want to build up through Xorg in chroot. I've done it before, but I used the host system to down load packages and patches and read the book. I thought that if I could get my wifi working in chroot then I could do what I wanted to and could download packages directly to the LFS tree without having to go through the host system to do that. Just an idea to make it easier for me. I posted in LFS because I didn't know if this was possible in chroot and knew that someone would tell me if it weren't. The problem I'm having is a BLFS one in that I've not configured either dhcpcd or wpa_supplicant correctly. I'm learning that it might be an Ubuntu phenomenon. Short version with no more info is that my card wlan0 authenticates and, then, immediately de-authenticates. I'm still trying to troubleshoot and learn. But.....with the info about the bootscripts, I got rid of the error messages in chroot.
