<listitem><para>October 17th, 2004 [jeremy]: Experimental - dropped udev from
chapter 5, created a minimal set of devices at the start of chapter 6, and run
udevstart when udev is installed chapter 6 to create the rest.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>October 17th, 2004 [jeremy]: Added back in the Util-linux

<listitem><para>September 11th, 2004 [jeremy]: A problem was reported on IRC
where after locking in glibc chapter 6, gcc would no longer function properly
due to a missing libgcc_s library.  In troubleshooting, it was found that this
occured because only the .so.1 library was linked from /tools to /usr/lib at

page in chapter 6.</para></listitem>

unstable.</para></listitem>

name in Chapter 6-Coreutils (used by the test suite).  Reported by
Nico to LFS-Dev</para></listitem>

syslog-ng hint.</para></listitem>

on CVS code from 2004-08-28.  Simplified the configure instructions for
glibc as well, thanks to the new tarball</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>August 30th, 2004 [matt]: chapter06/util-linux.xml.
-funit-at-a-time is implied by -O2, and it was this specific option that was
causing the runtime problems with sfdisk.  Instead of dropping to -O1
optimisation, we simply prevent the problematic optimisation by
specifying -fno-unit-at-a-time.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>August 30th, 2004 [matt]: chapter06/udev.xml.  Renumber udev
permissions and rules files to allow easier customisation.  Fixes bug 887.

<listitem><para>August 27, 2004 [jeremy]: Upgraded to LFS-Bootscripts-2.2.2</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>August 27, 2004 [jeremy]: (Experimental) Changed both chapter
5 and chapter 6 glibc to compile against sanitized headers instead of raw
kernel headers - this brings us more in line with what is considered "proper",
and should have minimal affect on the build itself.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>August 27, 2004 [jeremy]: (Experimental) Added -B/usr/bin flag
to GCC Pass 1 to solve possible problem where the host's toolchain is
actually newer than the one we're building.  Change taken from Greg Schafer's
