+<title>Rebooting the system</title>
+
+<para>Now that all software has been installed, bootscripts have been created,
+it's time to reboot the computer. Before we reboot let's exit the
+chroot'ed environment first and unmount the LFS partition by running:</para>
+
+<para><screen><userinput>umount $LFS/proc &amp;&amp;</userinput>
+<userinput>umount $LFS</userinput></screen></para>
+
+<para>And you can reboot your system by running something like:</para>
+
+<para><screen><userinput>/sbin/shutdown -r now</userinput></screen></para>
+
+<para>At the LILO: prompt make sure that you tell it to boot
+<emphasis>lfs</emphasis> and not the default entry which will boot your
+host system again.</para>
+
+<para>After you have rebooted, your LFS system is ready for use and you
+can start adding your own software.</para>
+
+<para>One final thing you may want to do is run lilo, now that you are
+booted into LFS. This way you will put the LFS version of LILO in the MBR
+rather than the one that's there right now from your host system.
+Depending on how old your host distribution is, the LFS version may have
+more advanced features you need/could use.</para>
+
+<para>Either way, run the following to make the lilo version installed
+on LFS active:</para>
+
+<para><screen><userinput>/sbin/lilo</userinput></screen></para>
+
+<para>If you are wondering: "Well, where to go now?" you'll be glad to
+hear that someone has written an LFS hint on the subject at <ulink
+url="&hint-root;afterlfs.txt">&hint-root;afterlfs.txt</ulink>.
+On a same note, if you are not only newbie to LFS, but also
+newbie to Linux in general, you may find the newbie hint at <ulink
+url="&hint-root;newbie.txt">&hint-root;newbie.txt</ulink>
+ very interesting.</para>
+
+<para>Don't forget there are several LFS mailinglists you can subscribe
+to if you are in need of help, advice, etc. See
+<ulink url="ch01-maillists.html">Chapter 1 - Mailinglists</ulink> for
+more information.</para>
+
+<para>Again, we thank you for using the LFS Book and hope you found this
+book useful and worth your time.</para>
