Now that all software has been installed, bootscripts have been created,
-it's time to reboot the computer. The system is shutdown with
-shutdown -r now and rebooted into LFS. After the reboot a normal
-login prompt like on the normal Linux system comes up (unless XDM or
-some sort of other Display Manger is used (like KDM - KDE's version of XDM)).
+it's time to reboot the computer. Run a command like
+<userinput>/sbin/shutdown -r now</userinput> or
+<userinput>/sbin/reboot</userinput> to reboot your system and at the
+LILO: prompt make sure that you tell it to boot

-One thing remains to be done and that's setting up networking. After having
-rebooted and finished the next chapter of this book the LFS system is
-ready for use and can be used to do with it whatever is wanted.
+During the first boot you will get a few errors from syslogd and klogd.
+These errors occur because we haven't setup networking yet. That will
+be taken care of in the next chapter. So don't worry about those errors
+for now.

+networking. After having rebooted and finished the next chapter of this
+book the LFS system is completely ready for use, and you can start
+adding your own software.
