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
