LSB compatible bootloader is out. By default it supports 23 distributions out of 36. There are two interfaced used in the code which are LAC incompatible.

fork & wait
library : libpthread.so.0

and the small piece of code where they are used:
pid = fork();
        if (pid == 0)
            execvp(thisfile, argv);
        wait(&rc);
        rc = WEXITSTATUS(rc);

Could you please guide me how to replace them to make the binary more lsb compatible?


Sorry, I'm not following, what's incompatible here?

fork, wait, and the WEXITSTATUS macros are certainly all part of the LSB - was that your question?

did you get errors from the checker?
