Re: [blfs-support] MC-4.8.11 requires S-Lang

S-Lang is currently in Recommended section. I guess it has to be moved to Required. Technically, it could be compiled with ncurses instead of slang. Recommended dependency means if you don't install it, you're on your own. -- Igor Živković http://www.slashtime.net/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

How is this? Spelling is all correct in /boot. The host 'LFS6' boots fine.
You're missing set root=(hd0,6) for in the LFS7 menu entry.
Yes thanks that boots the new system okay but leaves lfs6unbootable . I.e no
file found. There must be some kind of syntax error here somewher.
Instead of global set root statement, define it in each menu entry like
this:
menuentry LFS6, Linux 3.12.1-lfs-7.2 {
set root=(hd0,7)
linux /boot/lfskernel-3.12.1 root=/dev/sda7 ro
}
menuentry LFS7, Linux 3.12.5-lfs-7.4 {
set root=(hd0,6)
linux /boot/lfskernel-3.12.5 root=/dev/sda6 ro
}

Hi
I've built LFS six times and never had this issue. After rebooting I'm
getting an error saying 'file /boot/lfskernel-3.12.5 not found'
My 'grub.cfg' file from the host system(also LFS)reads:
# Begin /boot/grub/grub.cfg
set default=0
set timeout=20
set root=(hd0,7)
menuentry LFS6, Linux 3.12.1-lfs-7.2 {

Re: [lfs-support] No wireless connection to network

Compared with the discussion about efi-booting, which I follow with interest
and admiration, I am still in the stone-age. I installed LFS 7.4 on an old
laptop. It boots fine, but I cannot connect wireless to my network.
Wired is no problem (although I cannot find the eth0-device anywhere; how
does this work?).
The laptop uses a Cisco-Linksys wireless usb-adapter. Running udevadm monitor
and inserting the adapter gives device-information that I put in a rule into
70-persistent-netrules with the name wlan0:
SUBSYSTEM=usb, ACTION==add, ATTR{idVendor}==13b1,
ATTR{manufacturer}=Cisco-Linksys , ATTR{idProduct}==0020, NAME=wlan0
I added ifconfig.wlan0 to /etc/sysconfig:
ONBOOT=yes
IFACE=wlan0
SERVICE=ipv4-static
IP=192.168.178.26
GATEWAY=192.168.178.0
PREFIX=24
BROADCAST=192.168.178.255
WIRELESS_DEV=wlan0
#SERVICE=dhcpcd
In the kernel I have a line CONFIG_WIRELESS=y (but CONFIG_IPWIRELESS is not
set !?). But on booting I get the errors:
- cannot find device wlan0
- interface wlan0 does not exist.
Puppy Linux and Mint-13 on the same laptop have no problem finding wireless
my Fritz!Box-modem.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
You will also need to install the WPA supplicant package from BLFS.
