Thank you for your suggestion. Yes, I should read more than LFS alone, I know. I took a look at dmesg and used lspci to confirm it: I have RTL 8168d / 8111d NIC. However in the menuconfig I can only find 8139C, 8129/8130/8139 and 8169. So it seems I am out of luck. It's the r8169 driver

Re: [lfs-support] LFS 7.6 | Unsuccessful reboot

2014-10-19 Thread Richard Melville
I am not sure: is the kernel meant to create the /dev/mapper LVM logical volumes or it's the initrd's job? And how can I fix the mkinitramfs errors? The kernel creates /dev/mapper. So, with or without an initrd the devices should be listed under /dev, providing, of course, that the kernel

Hi, /dev/mapper is created but it is virtually empty (except for a char device). I was asking what populates /dev/mapper with the LV devices. I do have a separate /boot partition (it's /dev/sda1). And I have a second partition /dev/sda2 of LVM type on which I have 4 LVs. Thanks! On 19.10.2014

Hello, I have covered the entire LFS 7.6 but upon final reboot it is not restarting. Grub normal shell (not rescue) appears. I have tried to restart it manually but it doesn't boot properly. I suppose the reason for this is the fact that I've built LFS over LVM. I read that I shouldn't use LVM
