|

| 14 | First, the general configuration files needed to set up networking are

| 38 | <para>The next sections detail how to install and configure the LFS system
|
|---|
| 39 | scripts needed during the boot process. Most of these scripts will work
|
|---|
| 40 | without modification, but a few require additional configuration files
|
|---|
| 41 | because they deal with hardware-dependent information.</para>
|

| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 | <para>System-V style init scripts are employed in this book because they are
|
|---|
| 44 | widely used and relatively simple. For additional options, a hint detailing
|
|---|
| 45 | the BSD style init setup is available at <ulink
|
|---|
| 46 | url="&hints-root;bsd-init.txt"/>. Searching the LFS mailing lists for
|
|---|
| 47 | <quote>depinit</quote>, <quote>upstart</quote>, or <quote>systemd</quote>
|
|---|
| 48 | will also offer additional information.</para>
