This is an automated email from the git hooks/post-receive script. git pushed a commit to branch trunk in repository lfs. commit 9df9092e121fc879de92c56b57032b8c5dc6c9ae Author: Xi Ruoyao <[email protected]> AuthorDate: Sun Apr 5 16:38:31 2026 +0800 chapter10/grub: don't tell users to bind mount /boot If the host distro does not utilize a separate partition for /boot, bind mounting it just makes no sense: note that you cannot create a bind mount in fstab, so it's even impossible to access the LFS system's own kernel in the LFS system without manually creating the bind mount! If the host distro utilizes a separate partition, it can be simply mounted normally, not as a bind. --- chapter10/grub.xml | 15 +++++++-------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/chapter10/grub.xml b/chapter10/grub.xml index e88fab748..e8fbb0ba5 100644 --- a/chapter10/grub.xml +++ b/chapter10/grub.xml @@ -111,14 +111,13 @@ xorriso -as cdrecord -v dev=/dev/cdrw blank=as_needed grub-img.iso</userinput></ <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>.</para> <note> - <para><filename class="directory">/boot</filename> can reside on the - host.
