An age old argument, not quite vim vs emacs, but past precedence is that
soft $remote_fs ensures /usr is there. For BLFS, it's always been not
to start programs in /usr before at least network was started. gpm is
an error in the current book, that I introduced IIRC (and just noticed
the other day when using install_initd to do auto ordering for the first
time. $local_fs should still be a requirement, but was lost when I
trimmed the fat from LFS-bootscripts. I took the hard dependency out of
network.

Yeah, there are definitely no guarantees on the deps yet, I just wanted
to get the scripts in there for people to see. Lots of work to do on
the deps yet. I'll add $local_fs to the network script to define the
/var (and local /usr) requirement. Everyone should feel free to drop in
any scripts that you have handy or change anything in the contrib that
you see fit.
