11 <title>Rebooting the System</title>
12
13 <para>If you built your final system using the boot method, just run
14 <command>shutdown -r now</command> to reboot again, using your newly-built
15 kernel instead of the miminal one currently in use. If you chrooted,
16 there are a few more steps.</para>
17
18 <para>The system you have created in this book is quite minimal, and most
19 likely will not have the functionality you would need to be able to
20 continue forward. By installing a few extra packages from the BLFS
21 book while still in our current chroot environment, you can leave
22 yourself in a much better position to continue on once you reboot
23 into your new CLFS installation. Installing a text mode web browser,
24 such as Lynx, you can easily view the BLFS book in one virtual terminal,
25 while building packages in another. The GPM package will also allow you
26 to perform copy/paste actions in your virtual terminals. Lastly, if you
27 are in a situation where static IP configuration does not meet your
28 networking requirements, installing packages such as Dhcpcd or PPP at
29 this point might also be useful.</para>
30
31 <para>Now that we have said that, lets move on to booting our shiny
32 new CLFS installation for the first time! First exit from the chroot
33 environment:</para>
34
35<screen><userinput>logout</userinput></screen>
36
37 <para>Then unmount the virtual file systems:</para>
38
39<screen><userinput>umount ${CLFS}/dev/pts
40umount ${CLFS}/dev/shm
41umount ${CLFS}/dev
42umount ${CLFS}/proc
43umount ${CLFS}/sys</userinput></screen>
44
45 <para>Unmount the CLFS file system itself:</para>
46
47<screen><userinput>umount ${CLFS}</userinput></screen>
48
49 <para>If multiple partitions were created, unmount the other
50 partitions before unmounting the main one, like this:</para>
51
52<screen><userinput>umount ${CLFS}/usr
53umount ${CLFS}/home
54umount ${CLFS}</userinput></screen>
55
56 <para>Now, reboot the system with:</para>
57
58<screen><userinput>shutdown -r now</userinput></screen>
59
60 <para>Assuming the boot loader was set up as outlined earlier,
61 <emphasis>CLFS &version;</emphasis> will boot automatically.</para>
62
63 <para>When the reboot is complete, the CLFS system is ready for use and
64 more software may be added to suit your needs.</para>
