<title>Rebooting the System</title>
<para>
Now that all of the software has been installed, it is time to reboot
your computer. However, there are still a few things to check.
Here are some suggestions:</para>
<!--
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;postlfs/make-ca.html'>make-ca</ulink> package
will allow you to set up local trusted anchor certificates, allowing
the system to verify SSL certificates provided by remote servers (for
example, a website using HTTPS).</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 revision="sysv"><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>To connect to a wireless access point for networking,
install <ulink

</para></listitem>

<listitem>
<para>
Install any <ulink

kernel driver for your hardware requires some firmware files to function
properly.

Finally, a review of the following configuration files
is also appropriate at this point.

<para>Now that we have said that, let's move on to booting our shiny new LFS
installation for the first time! <emphasis>First exit from the chroot
environment</emphasis>:</para>
<screen><userinput>logout</userinput></screen>
<!-- We need to show the user the details...-->
<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>If multiple partitions were created, unmount the other
partitions before unmounting the main one, like this:</para>
<screen role="nodump"><userinput>umount -v $LFS/home
umount -v $LFS</userinput></screen>
<para>Unmount the LFS file system itself:</para>
<screen role="nodump"><userinput>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>
