Hello Robert, Yes. LFS and CLFS use different boot scripts for the sysvinit releases of the book. The Pure 64 bit CLFS book uses /lib,/usr/lib. LFS will link /lib to /lib64 and /usr/lib to /usr/lib64. If you plan to use BLFS, CLFS will have a little different system layout. You can view each book side by side and notice the major differences. Also, CLFS hasn't been updated in a while to the latest toolchain edits, which will be added sometime in the next year if the developers get motivated or get some free time. If you don't need to cross compile tools, it is better to stick with LFS.
