I asked a similar question a few months ago in this list; there were a number of positive responses. If you search the archives for "LFS" you should find them. Perhaps now is the time to begin discussion/planning of a porting effort, so that work can begin in earnest in the new year. I'm inclined to do more than a simple port. The LFS code has a lot of entropy in it, as well as some design/implementation decisions that make it difficult to modify the code in the direction my research will go. I'm in favor of a redesign/refactoring, with portability and modifiability among the primary goals. Is anyone out there willing to set up a mailing list for a FreeBSD LFS effort? --Dwight Tuinstra tuinstra@clarkson.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-fs Mon Nov 27 13:58:30 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-fs@freebsd.org Received: from mail.integratus.com (unknown [63.209.2.83]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 9504737B4CF for ; Mon, 27 Nov 2000 13:58:28 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 1187 invoked from network); 27 Nov 2000 21:58:22 -0000 Received: from kungfu.integratus.com (HELO integratus.com) (172.20.5.168) by tortuga1.integratus.com with SMTP; 27 Nov 2000 21:58:22 -0000 Message-ID: <3A22D8FE.46E65E8A@integratus.com> Date: Mon, 27 Nov 2000 13:58:22 -0800 From: Jack Rusher Organization: http://www.integratus.com/ X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.73 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.12 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Dwight Tuinstra Cc: andre@netvision.com.br, freebsd-fs@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: LFS References: <00112311023200.03305@nv12.netvision.com.br> <3A22BBE8.7324263A@clarkson.edu> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-fs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Dwight Tuinstra wrote: > > Is anyone out there willing to set up a mailing list for > a FreeBSD LFS effort? I spoke with Margo Seltzer about this at OSDI. She said that she would have a mailing list set up shortly. She also has a couple of grad students that are working on getting the code running on modern BSD. Dan Ellard has the code mostly working on modern BSDi & one of the other students is very interested in a FreeBSD version of the LFS. I just sent her a reminder concerning the communal project, so we may have something by the end of the week. -- Jack Rusher, Senior Engineer | mailto:jar@integratus.com Integratus, Inc. | http://www.integratus.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-fs Tue Nov 28 12:48:32 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-fs@freebsd.org Received: from mail.interware.hu (mail.interware.hu [195.70.32.130]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 466DA37B400 for ; Tue, 28 Nov 2000 12:48:29 -0800 (PST) Received: from luanda-25.budapest.interware.hu ([195.70.51.25] helo=elischer.org) by mail.interware.hu with esmtp (Exim 3.16 #1 (Debian)) id 140rfk-0004wi-00; Tue, 28 Nov 2000 21:48:17 +0100 Message-ID: <3A23EDAA.30220409@elischer.org> Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2000 09:38:50 -0800 From: Julian Elischer X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT i386) X-Accept-Language: en, hu MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Dwight Tuinstra Cc: andre@netvision.com.br, freebsd-fs@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: LFS References: <00112311023200.03305@nv12.netvision.com.br> <3A22BBE8.7324263A@clarkson.edu> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-15 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-fs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Dwight Tuinstra wrote: > > André Luiz dos Santos wrote: > > > > Hi... > > > > Is there anybody working on porting LFS to freebsd?

Sour grapes from people whos fs can't deal with frags. :) Yes, people read fs@, no need to cross post. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."
