Linux From Scratch
Hi,
Just to let everybody know that i've (finally) sucsesfully completley LFS (www.linuxfromscratch.org) on my 712/80 I may be writing a hint for it, since it did get a bit messy ;)
But for anybody who doesn't like debian too much, i'd sugest attemping LFS.
Also while doing LFS, i used 2.4.18-pa2 (yesterdays CVS, to be exact) and (i think this has been reported already) My power LED switches off when linux is loading/loaded and soft power off no longer works (it just switches off) Any reason for this?
Anyway, if you have any problems doing LFS, contact me or post on the mailing list It takes just 20 seconds to boot (from end of bios->login prompt) and the entire system is < 200MB

When the HOW-TO is done, post it to parisc-linux mailing list and I'll add it someplace to the parisc-linux.org website.
Thanks, I'll proberly write it sometime next week, since I have to sort out my server this week.
(and LFS-3.2 should be out next week)
but if anybody wants to try it sooner, I'd be happy to help them with any problems/querys (email me directly, I'll respond faster)
