The reason for the "UNSTABLE" mark is, that it does not include scripts for many popular applications, including any graphical environment.
If you want to build a graphical system, use revision 12.
Changelog
For this revision I focused on proper Live CD creation. The changes listed here improve the Live CD creation process and improve the look of Live CD's that are branded with the 'fsos' script.
- LFScript now reloads /etc/profile, if it is created in a script.
- Removed all unchecked scripts, which includes most BLFS scripts. If you want to build a graphical system, use revision 12.
- Removed the scripts for previous LFS version.
- Merged 'init.sh' with the 'buildiso' script.
- Made several improvements in the 'buildiso' and 'livekernel' scripts.
- Renamed 'fsos2' to just 'fsos'. The version number of fsos will from now on be the same as the LFScript revision that was used to create it.
- Added a script to the 'fsos' directory that merges Live CD's of different architectures into a single image.
- Updated and created the fsos kernel configurations for i386 and x86_64 systems.
- Added the source SVG for the 'fsos_boot.png' isolinux splash screen.
- Updated the 'fsos2' script and renamed it 'fsos-nox' (as it contains 'no X11'). Added a script 'fsos-nox-32' which adds software which only compiles on 32-bit systems (memtest86+).
- Updated the documentation to reflect the current version.
New Live CD
As a result of all the changes, I've been able to build a new Live CD. From now on Live CD's will carry the same version number as the LFScript revision that was used to create it. So, this new CD is "fsos4r14".
Note that because revision 14 does not have scripts for X11, Gnome and KDE (revision 12 does), this Live CD is also without a graphical environment.
Starting with this release, the same Live CD can be used to boot i686 (32-bit) systems and x86_64 (64-bit) systems
This new Live CD is now the recommended host system to use when building LFScript 4.
