+ <title>Rebooting the System</title>
+
+ <para>Now that all of the software has been installed, it is time to reboot
+ your computer. However, you should be aware of a few things. The system you
+ have created in this book is quite minimal, and most likely will not have
+ the functionality you would need to be able to continue forward. By installing
+ a few extra packages from the BLFS book while still in our current chroot
+ environment, you can leave yourself in a much better position to continue on
+ once you reboot into your new LFS installation. Here are some suggestions:</para>
+
+ <itemizedlist>
+
+ <listitem><para>A text mode browser such as <ulink
+ url='&blfs-book;basicnet/lynx.html'>Lynx</ulink>
+ will allow you to easily view the BLFS book in one virtual terminal, while
+ building packages in another.</para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>The <ulink
+ url='&blfs-book;general/gpm.html'>GPM</ulink> package will allow
+ you to perform copy/paste actions in your virtual
+ terminals.</para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>If you are in a situation where static IP configuration
+ does not meet your networking requirements, installing a package
+ such as <ulink url='&blfs-book;basicnet/dhcpcd.html'>dhcpcd</ulink>
+ or the client portion of <ulink
+ url='&blfs-book;basicnet/dhcp.html'>dhcp</ulink> may be
+ useful.</para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>Installing <ulink
+ url='&blfs-book;postlfs/sudo.html'>sudo</ulink> may be useful for
+ building packages as a non-root user and easily installing the resulting
+ packages in your new system. </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>If you want to access your new system from a remote system
+ within a comfortable GUI environment, install <ulink
+ url='&blfs-book;postlfs/openssh.html'>openssh</ulink>.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>To make fetching files over the internet easier, install
+ <ulink url='&blfs-book;basicnet/wget.html'>wget</ulink>.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>If one or more of your disk drives have a GUID partition
+ table (GPT), either <ulink
+ url='&blfs-book;postlfs/gptfdisk.html'>gptfdisk</ulink> or <ulink
+ url='&blfs-book;postlfs/parted.html'>parted</ulink> will be useful.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>Finally, a review of the following configuration files
+ is also appropriate at this point. </para>
+
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/bashrc </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/dircolors </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/fstab </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/hosts </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/inputrc </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/profile </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/resolv.conf </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/etc/vimrc </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/root/.bash_profile </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>/root/.bashrc </para></listitem>
+ <listitem revision="sysv"><para>/etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0 </para></listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+
+ <para>Now that we have said that, let's move on to booting our shiny new LFS
+ installation for the first time! First exit from the chroot environment:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>logout</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>Then unmount the virtual file systems:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>umount -v $LFS/dev/pts
+umount -v $LFS/dev
+umount -v $LFS/run
+umount -v $LFS/proc
+umount -v $LFS/sys</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>Unmount the LFS file system itself:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>umount -v $LFS</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>If multiple partitions were created, unmount the other
+ partitions before unmounting the main one, like this:</para>
+
+<screen role="nodump"><userinput>umount -v $LFS/usr
+umount -v $LFS/home
+umount -v $LFS</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>Now, reboot the system with:</para>
+
+<screen role="nodump"><userinput>shutdown -r now</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>Assuming the GRUB boot loader was set up as outlined earlier, the menu
+ is set to boot <emphasis>LFS &version;</emphasis> automatically.</para>
+
+ <para>When the reboot is complete, the LFS system is ready for use and
+ more software may be added to suit your needs.</para>
