  31. move <filename>/usr/bin/bzless</filename> and
  32. <filename>/usr/bin/bzmore</filename> to the <filename
  33. class="directory">/bin</filename> directory, we first remove the
  34. <filename>/bin/bzless</filename> and <filename>/bin/bzmore</filename>
  35. files. On some systems overwriting the existing files doesn't work due to
  36. hardlinks being used.</para></listitem>
  37. <listitem><para>March 21st, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Sysklogd: Updated
  38. the download location to <ulink url="http://www.infodrom.org/projects/sysklogd/">http://www.infodrom.org/projects/sysklogd/</ulink></para></listitem>
  39. <listitem><para>March 20th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure Dynamic
  40. Loader: Removed the <filename class="directory">/lib</filename> and
  41. <filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename> directories from the

  43. unnecessary.</para></listitem>
  44. <listitem><para>March 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06+Appendix A: Removed
  45. the chroot dependencies. It's not a package so it's a bit out of
  46. place.</para></listitem>
  47. <listitem><para>March 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05+06 - Gawk: Added
  48. commands to sed the <filename>awklib/Makefile.in</filename> file to change

  60. binutils-2.12</para></listitem>
  61. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07 - Setclock: The text
  62. here hinted towards the fact that you could skip configuring this step
  63. which isn't true unless the entire script would be removed. So the text was
  64. changed a bit to just have them create the file no matter how the hardware
  65. clock is setup.</para></listitem>
  66. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07 - Loadkeys: Removed
  67. the need to configure a <filename>/etc/sysconfig/keyboard</filename> file.
  68. The kbd patch makes this obsolete (loadkeys -d is used
  69. now).</para></listitem>
  70. <listitem><para>March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Gawk: Added
  71. -Dre_max_failures=re_max_failures2 bug fix for glibc-2.1.x

  76. links, so we remove the files first.</para></listitem>
  77. <listitem><para>March 10th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure keyboard:
  78. Added section to configure keyboard keymap file by creating the <filename

  80. symlink.</para></listitem>

  84. <filename class="directory">$LFS/boot</filename>.</para></listitem>
  85. <listitem><para>March 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Man: Moved the

  93. <listitem><para>March 8th, 2002 [gerard]: Removed the Mawk package and
  94. replaced with the Gawk package. This was done because mawk is no longer
  95. being developed, while gawk is. Mawk has some POSIX compliance bugs that

  157. additional programs to the ($LFS)/bin directory that are used by the
  158. bootscripts. No programs used by bootscripts (except daemons themselves)

  175. <listitem><para>February 1st, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Glibc: Instead of
