Just to be clear - I copied a binary system and used that to build
the LFS I am running. But I create machine-specific 'hostfile's for
things like fstab (various things such as /boot, /home, swap at
fixed locations, as well as my /scratch directory) as well as for
"can it suspend or hibernate" and "which xorg driver".
Just being pedantic because I wouldn't want to think I was doing
things for the book on a binary-installed system ;)
