You missed the sound card. Sound is just not supported on the CD (and
that's bad for owners of i810-based winmodems).
Minuses:
Where'd ifconfig go??? :-( -- I'm an old fuddyduddy and this
newfangled ip command really confused me no end! I finally fudged around
with the bootscripts enough to figure out how to set up my networking...
LFS switched to iproute2. In fact, I don't like this switch because
iproute2 is not that stable (e.g. I was able to make the "tc" command
segfault). But it's LFS, and it uses iproute2 :(
Whilst diddling with said networking bootscripts & config files,
unionfs barfed & lost the /etc/sysconfig directory. Rebooting
(obviously) fixed it, and it only happened once so far.
Unionfs is indeed too buggy and in the future CDs may be limited to /usr
or dropped (in favor of cowloop?).
I skimmed over the note about how to customize the CD, and will
burning a 2nd session with a newer version of a file
*overwrite/disable/ignore* the original file if it already exists on the
CD?
Yes, the new file will overwrite the old one.
