%general-entities; ]> Rebooting the System Now that all of the software has been installed, it is time to reboot your computer. However, there are still a few things to check. Here are some suggestions: Install any firmware needed if the kernel driver for your hardware requires some firmware files to function properly. A review of the following configuration files is also appropriate at this point. /etc/bashrc /etc/dircolors /etc/fstab /etc/hosts /etc/inputrc /etc/profile /etc/resolv.conf /etc/vimrc /root/.bash_profile /root/.bashrc /etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0 Now that we have said that, let's move on to booting our shiny new LFS installation for the first time! First exit from the chroot environment: logout Then unmount the virtual file systems: umount -v $LFS/dev/pts mountpoint -q $LFS/dev/shm && umount $LFS/dev/shm umount -v $LFS/dev umount -v $LFS/run umount -v $LFS/proc umount -v $LFS/sys If multiple partitions were created, unmount the other partitions before unmounting the main one, like this: umount -v $LFS/home umount -v $LFS Unmount the LFS file system itself: umount -v $LFS Now, reboot the system. Assuming the GRUB boot loader was set up as outlined earlier, the menu is set to boot LFS &version; automatically. When the reboot is complete, the LFS system is ready for use and more software may be added to suit your needs.
