Description

Section 8.3 of the LFS book recommends building a completely non-modular kernel. However, the LFS bootscripts assume that you have a kernel with module support - otherwise there are a bunch of errors every time you boot. I don't think it's a problem that breaks anything (I'm pretty sure it's just the bootscript that loads kernel modules, but I haven't really checked much) but errors are bad. Perhaps the kernel installation section of the book should say that you should compile module support even if you don't build anything in the kernel as a module.
