Hold on. I'm getting around to finishing my usb key image which is 64-bit computer agnostic (even mpfr is compiled for generic-x86_64 which mean k8 code, no mmx or its amd equivalent, sse and sse2 only). Obviously, I don't compile in Xorg but you get a command line with root and lfs account already setup with the correct environment variables. it include all of LFS and these apps from BLFS: 1-: openssl 2-: dosfstools (I need it for uefi) 3-: popt 4-: icu 5-: gptfdisk 6-: lynx browser 7-: smartmontools 8-: libffi 9-: libusb 10-: gpm 11-: hdparm 12-: gnu which 13-: lm_sensors 14-: pciutils 15-: sg3_utils 16-: python 2 17-: usbutils 18-: dhcpcd 19-: ntp 20-: curl 21-: wget 22-: git 23-: libnl 24-: wpa_supplicant (sans QT). 25-: traceroute it load into a ramdrive (size: 1.5GB, your machine will probably need 4 GB of ram) and I can build both a bios based image (bootloader: grub-2) or uefi (bootloader: refind). It'll be ready and uploaded on my linode tomorrow. Do you need it?
