I am presently looking at and working on the LFS boot scripts. They are in my opinion very rough state.
I am going to clean them up and use the following format for all of the individual scripts that will be used on my systems as follows: Shebang line: #!/bin/bash Comment Title block: the purpose of the script Global variables: defined here Local variables: not defined in functions Source scripts: all outside scripts sourced here Functions: all functions defined here Mainline: main body Cleanup: any cleanup that needs to be done Exit: script terminates I will add comments to explain the goal/purpose of the script and also what each function does. I am going to rewrite some of the scripts so they will be self sufficient as possible. I will add ipv6 support using a service file much like ivp4-static. This should allow ipv6 to be used on both dual stacked systems and system that are ipv4 or ipv6 only. I am also going to build to test them before placing them onto my working servers. Is there any interest by LFS on doing this or am I just wasting my time posting here? -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
