  33. Keyboard: explained you can also compile the keymap directly into the
  34. kernel which has additional benefits.</para></listitem>
  35. <listitem><para>April 5th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to
  36. lfs-bootscripts-1.9</para></listitem>
  37. <listitem><para>April 5th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05+06 - GCC: Added
  38. commands to remove the <filename class="directory">/usr/*-gnu</filename>
  39. directory.</para></listitem>
  40. <listitem><para>April 4th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Diffutils: Added

  43. missing package descriptions.</para></listitem>
  44. <listitem><para>April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Mounting $LFS/proc:
  45. Added <userinput>chown root.root $LFS/proc</userinput>. The recursive chown
  46. operation in chapter 6 doesn't touch proc, so this'll remain owned by user
  47. <emphasis>lfs</emphasis>. It's not a big deal, just not a very clean thing
  48. to do.</para></listitem>
  49. <listitem><para>April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Groff: Added a few
  50. symlinks that are used by programs like <userinput>xman</userinput> and
  51. others.</para></listitem>
  52. <listitem><para>April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 04 - Mounting partitions:
  53. Added some notes how to deal with multiple partitions ($LFS, $LFS/usr and
  54. so on).</para></listitem>
  55. <listitem><para>April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - E2fsprogs: Added

  58. <listitem><para>April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Bzip2: Reversed the
  59. <userinput>make</userinput> and <userinput>make -f
  60. Makefile-libbz2_so</userinput>. This is needed so all object files are
  61. compiled with the PIC option (Position Independant Code).</para></listitem>
  62. <listitem><para>April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Linux: Shortened the
  63. installation instructions by cutting out the <userinput>make
  64. config</userinput> and <userinput>make dep</userinput>
  65. stages.</para></listitem>
  66. <listitem><para>April 1st, 2002 [gerard]: This is not a joke: Chapter 5+6 -
  67. Gawk: Added a warning to never run <userinput>make uninstall</userinput> on
  68. the package. It will be pretty much equivalent to <userinput>rm -rf
  69. /usr/bin/*</userinput> because we override the <filename
  70. class="directory">libexec</filename> directory definition to <filename
  71. class="directory">/usr/bin</filename></para></listitem>
  72. <listitem><para>March 29th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 05 and 06 - Updated to
  73. diffutils-2.8, modutils-2.4.15 and vim-6.1. Removed PR_PROGRAM setting
  74. for diffutils as /usr/bin/pr is now detected by the configure script.
  75. Removed sed to fix problem with shell syntax highlighting in vim as that
  76. is fixed in the new version.</para></listitem>
  77. <listitem><para>March 26th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 02 - Asking for help:
  78. Added reference to ESR's smart-questions document.</para></listitem>
  79. <listitem><para>March 25th, 2002 [markh]: Binutils - Added libopcodes
  80. library description.</para></listitem>
  81. <listitem><para>March 21st, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Bzip2: Before we
  82. move <filename>/usr/bin/bzless</filename> and
  83. <filename>/usr/bin/bzmore</filename> to the <filename
  84. class="directory">/bin</filename> directory, we first remove the
  85. <filename>/bin/bzless</filename> and <filename>/bin/bzmore</filename>
  86. files. On some systems overwriting the existing files doesn't work due to
  87. hardlinks being used.</para></listitem>
  88. <listitem><para>March 21st, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Sysklogd: Updated
  89. the download location to <ulink url="http://www.infodrom.org/projects/sysklogd/">http://www.infodrom.org/projects/sysklogd/</ulink></para></listitem>
  90. <listitem><para>March 20th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure Dynamic
  91. Loader: Removed the <filename class="directory">/lib</filename> and
  92. <filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename> directories from the
  93. <filename>ld.so.conf</filename> file. They were
  94. unnecessary.</para></listitem>
  95. <listitem><para>March 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06+Appendix A: Removed
  96. the chroot dependencies. It's not a package so it's a bit out of
  97. place.</para></listitem>
  98. <listitem><para>March 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05+06 - Gawk: Added
  99. commands to sed the <filename>awklib/Makefile.in</filename> file to change
  100. the <emphasis>datadir</emphasis> and <emphasis>libexecdir</emphasis>
  101. definitions</para></listitem>
  102. <listitem><para>March 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 01 - Mailing lists:
  103. Added lfs-chat description</para></listitem>
  104. <listitem><para>March 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06-Shadow: Move
  105. <filename>libmisc.*a</filename> to
  106. <filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename> too.</para></listitem>
  107. <listitem><para>March 14th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to

  110. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to
  111. binutils-2.12</para></listitem>
  112. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07 - Setclock: The text
  113. here hinted towards the fact that you could skip configuring this step
  114. which isn't true unless the entire script would be removed. So the text was
  115. changed a bit to just have them create the file no matter how the hardware
  116. clock is setup.</para></listitem>
  117. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07 - Loadkeys: Removed
  118. the need to configure a <filename>/etc/sysconfig/keyboard</filename> file.
  119. The kbd patch makes this obsolete (loadkeys -d is used
  120. now).</para></listitem>
  121. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Gawk: Added
  122. -Dre_max_failures=re_max_failures2 bug fix for glibc-2.1.x
  123. systems.</para></listitem>
  124. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Bzip2: Before
  125. installing, remove <filename>/usr/bin/bz*</filename>. The bzip2
  126. installation doens't deal with existing files properly when making hard
  127. links, so we remove the files first.</para></listitem>
  128. <listitem><para>March 10th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure keyboard:
  129. Added section to configure keyboard keymap file by creating the <filename

  131. symlink.</para></listitem>
  132. <listitem><para>March 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 08 - Make bootable: Added
  133. a <userinput>cp</userinput> command that finds all the kernel images from
  134. <filename>/etc/lilo.conf</filename> automatically and copies them to
  135. <filename class="directory">$LFS/boot</filename>.</para></listitem>
  136. <listitem><para>March 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Man: Moved the

  139. class="directory">/etc</filename>.</para></listitem>
  140. <listitem><para>March 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07: Added a page about
  141. the sysklogd script and explain that the default script includes the

  144. <listitem><para>March 8th, 2002 [gerard]: Removed the Mawk package and
  145. replaced with the Gawk package. This was done because mawk is no longer

  147. are fixed in Gawk.</para></listitem>
  148. <listitem><para>March 8th, 2002 [gerard]: Updated to the following
  149. packages: autoconf-2.53, automake-1.6, bin86-0.16.2, bison-1.33,

  166. commands to remove the setgid kmem bit from
  167. <filename>/usr/bin/make</filename>. This isn't needed on Linux systems to

  208. additional programs to the ($LFS)/bin directory that are used by the
