Hey Alan!
AI> I just grabbed the grub source on another (slackware) machine here
AI> and I ran ./bootstrap and it grabbed gnulib and carried on.
Excellent. You had me worried there for a second.
AI> It found a lot of dependecies on that machine and took quite a
AI> while to run compared to building in the lfs chroot.
Yes but you only have to run ./bootstrap the first time. You could make a tarball from the resulting source after running ./bootstrap and thus save yourself building time on other targets or future from scratch builds.
AI> One day I am going to see if I can get the starfield theme working.
Is that a planetarium type thingy?
Life is good,
Maurice
