     @RL_Dane Yup, I am going over all the projects Linux From Scratch you to install & BZip2 is next on my list... Yesterday I promised I'd cover it today...

     @jbowen @RL_Dane I'd be surprised if this wasn't possible, but I don't know how much effort BSD puts into making their userspace portable. Doubt as much as GNU does!

     @RL_Dane @alcinnz #ChimeraLinux does it, but I don't know how much work they had to do to make things work.

     NICE!

     I was just wondering, would it be possible to LFS a BSD userspace over the Linux kernel, or are there just too many missing BSD syscalls for anything to work?
