Contents of Linux"" Original line (mismatch form): ""Installed files: config-2.6.32.8, lfskernel-2.6.32.8, and System.map-2.6.32.8"" should be changed to the correct form: ""Installed files: config-2.6.32.8, vmlinux-2.6.32.8-lfs-6.6, and System.map-2.6.32.8"" because: - section ""8.3.1. Installation of the kernel"" say: The filename below can be changed to suit your taste, but the stem of the filename should be vmlinux to be compatible with the automatic setup of the boot process described in the next section. The following command assumes an x86 architecture: cp -v arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinux-2.6.32.8-lfs-6.6 - original line (mismatch form in 8.3.3.) followed by ""Short Descriptions"", where is vmlinux-2.6.32.8-lfs-6.6 (but not a lfskernel-2.6.32.8) descripted. Mismatch N2 In section ""8.4.2. Setting Up the Configuration"" for contents of /boot/grub/grub.cfg wrongly printed menuentries ""GNU/Linux, Linux 2.6.30.2-lfs65""* from previous version of LFS, mismatching to /boot/vmlinux-2.6.32.8-lfs-6.6 in the same print and to the actions of above sections of LFS6.6. (Possible reason of mistake somwhere near error inside xml-version error (see http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/browser/trunk/BOOK/chapter08/grub.xml), where hardcoded ""Linux 2.6.30.2-lfs65"", instead it should be something like """"Linux &linux-&version"" as it already done there for ""linux /boot/vmlinux-&linux-version;-lfs-&version; root=/dev/sda2 ro single"") P.S. Btw, may be vmlinuz-2.6.32.8-lfs-6.6 instead of vmlinux-2.6.32.8-lfs-6.6 will be more closer to some linux naming traditions, if ""cp -v arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinux-2.6.32.8-lfs-6.6"" command involved? i.e. if ""bzImage"" means ""big ZIPed (compressed) Image"", then 'z' in vmliuz will illustrate it, especialy according to the some purposes of LFS (""learning experience"" and ""power that information and knowledge truly bring"" (see the Audience section of book ;)) " task closed normal 6.7 Book SVN normal fixed
