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 11.3-rc1 automatically.
When the reboot is complete, the LFS system is ready for use and more software may be added to suit your needs.
