I just found something I'd like changed in the bootscripts. A while
back, I started removing 2/dev/null redirection since it hides
messages for errors.
http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/changeset/8167
I just hit one I missed in checkfs. We currently have
fsck ${options} -a -A -C -T 2/dev/null
Which conveniently hid the info the I had a LABEL wrong in fstab.
Instead I was dumped directly into There's an unrecoverable error,
we're halting and was really worried my disk was failing. Once I
commented out 2/dev/null, it was clear what the problem was.
Does anyone have any objections if I remove the 2/dev/null above and
regenerate the bootscripts?

Well, I was putting out feelers as much as anything. I don't know what the right place to host it is. In BLFS, we often use the little file repo on anduin, but we don't have a similar setup for LFS. I think downloads would probably be a good place, though, since shadow is shared across both books. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Sounds good, the lfs package repo won't be having that file be removed for years, I still even have 6.0 packages in the rsync repo, so any stable mirror of lfs such as anduin should be fine. lfs-matrix.net is my mirror and has been around for a while (not sure how long, haven't kept track) and I have no plans of stopping mirroring.

The web site has been updated too, but the release announcement has not yet been sent. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/6.3-rc2/ The only outstanding issue before 6.3 final that I know about is to finish getting the acknowledgments page updated properly.
