Hi all,

within the current discussion i try to start a balloon again which is named 
multi-platform. I do not mean it in the way of cross-compiling but building a 
LFS system for the current running maschine. Which ever this machine is. 
Staying on the same architecture, the differences between the architectures 
compared to others are not sooo much, i think (am i right here?). Staying on 
the arch i mean, that i'm going to build a PPC-LFS on a PPC, or a x86-LFS on 
a x86. the most different parts is the name of the dynmic linker, i think, 
and the option on boot loaders (lilo, grub, yaboot, whatelse).

What do you think about having a a bit closer look to this? A separate section 
about choosing the boot-loader? And of course a section about required 
packages for a specific arch - if there are one?
