<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

<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>
Install any <ulink

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

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

<screen role="nodump"><userinput>reboot -ff</userinput></screen>
<para><parameter>-ff</parameter> option allows to reboot the system
without support from the <command>init</command> process.</para>
<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>
