Approximate build time: 0.1 SBU Required disk space: 0.3 MB
LFS-Bootscripts installation depends on: Bash, Coreutils.
Installed scripts: checkfs, cleanfs, functions, halt, ifdown, ifup, loadkeys, localnet, mountfs, mountkernfs, network, rc, reboot, sendsignals, setclock, static, swap, sysklogd and template
The checkfs script checks the file systems just before they are mounted (with the exception of journal and network based file systems).
The cleanfs script removes files that shouldn't be preserved between reboots, such as those in /var/run/ and /var/lock/. It re-creates /var/run/utmp and removes the possibly present /etc/nologin, /fastboot and /forcefsck files.
The functions script contains functions shared among different scripts, such as error and status checking.
The halt script halts the system.
The ifdown and ifup scripts assist the network script with network devices.
The loadkeys script loads the keymap table you specified as proper for your keyboard layout.
The localnet script sets up the system's hostname and local loopback device.
The mountfs script mounts all file systems that aren't marked noauto or aren't network based.
The mountkernfs script is used to mount kernel-provided file systems, such as /proc.
The network script sets up network interfaces, such as network cards, and sets up the default gateway where applicable.
The rc script is the master run-level control script. It is responsible for running all the other scripts one-by-one, in a sequence determined by the name of the symbolic links being processed.
The reboot script reboots the system.
The sendsignals script makes sure every process is terminated before the system reboots or halts.
The setclock script resets the kernel clock to localtime in case the hardware clock isn't set to GMT time.
The static script provides the functionality needed to assign a static IP address to a network interface.
The swap script enables and disables swap files and partitions.
The sysklogd script starts and stops the system and kernel log daemons.
The template script is a template you can use to create your own bootscripts for your other daemons.
