lfs-scripts

This repo contain scripts to automate multilib LFS build + livecd. This LFS build is using CRUX's pkgutils for managing packages and initramfs generator from Venom Linux for livecd initramfs.

Requirements

• sudo / doas
• wget
• passes lfs version-check.sh test
• squashfs-tools & libisoburn (optional to create the livecd iso)

Scripts

• 01-toolchain

  • toolchain script to build base lfs (required)
  • this script need run as regular user
  • this script resume-able, just re-run the script to continue where you left

• 02-base

  • script to build base lfs system
  • this script need run as root
  • all package is build using port system (pkgutils)
  • you can create your own ports by follow guide here
  • extra packages is added into this base lfs, eg:
    • linux kernel
    • wget
    • dhcpcd
    • wpa_supplicant
    • mkinitramfs (taken from Venom Linux, livecd support)
    • syslinux
  • this script resume-able, just re-run the script to continue where you left
  • created packages can be reused

• 03-mkiso

  • script to build lfs livecd iso
  • this script need run as root

• version-check.sh

  • script to check utilities requirements to build lfs

Step

Basically you just need to run all those 3 scripts without other command to get LFS system built including live ISO. You can run:

$ ./01-toolchain && sudo ./02-base && sudo ./03-mkiso

Note: script 01-toolchain gonna ask for sudo or doas password

• First grab any distro's livecd to use as host, or you can just your current running linux distro as host. (read below for tested host)
• Prepare your partition for LFS and mount it on /mnt/lfs or you can change where LFS build directory in config file.
• Optionally modify config file to suit your need.
• Run script 01-toolchain to build temporary toolchain.
• Run script 02-base to build base LFS system.
• Optionally run script 03-mkiso to build live iso, then you can test the iso using qemu by running ./run_qemu <iso file>.
• Run ./enter-chroot to enter chroot environment to configure your system. configure instruction here
• Exit chroot environment.
• Then you should have working LFS system now.
• Reboot to test it out.

Tested host

• Venom Linux
• Artix Linux - require base-devel and wget
• Arya Linux (live environment)
• Slackware - Thanks to joe71 for testing
• (more will come)
