Hi Jim,

Whoa, that's very interesting.  I guess I figured that anybody who
builds the LBE would be using an i686.  I'm very curious to see how long
it takes you on the VIA.  It takes about 11 hours on my Dell P3 500Mhz
laptop.

I ran it again so here is an update:

  crosscomp-src         207:15
  lbe-src               374:24
  ltsp-src              612:55
  kernel-src            199:42
                       =======
  Total                1394:16

Yup--almost 24 hours. I'm making an x86 chroot build environment on the amd64 box to speed things up--unless someone figured out an easier way to build lbe on 64-bit systems.

I've been trying to build a 2.6.12 kernel so the Wacom Intuos3 tablet will work. I'm nearly there but the last kernel had a problem with devfs. It appears that devfs is being dropped in favor of udev--are there any plans on moving to udev in ltsp?

Also--is there any documentation on building kernels in lbe? There were lots of tweaks I had to make to get it to work but I might have missed something.

Finally, is supermount really needed? I managed to find a supermount patch for 2.6.12, but isn't a method for network booting already included in the kernel?
