At present, in Chapter 4, the host system's root user creates a minimal directory hierarchy, then creates the lfs user and then chown's the minimal directory hierarchy so as to be owned by th e lfs user, and finally does an su to the lfs user.
I was thinking that the order could be altered so that, the host system's root user first creates the lfs user, then merely changes the ownership of the top of the $LFS partition, and then,after the su - lfs the lfs user would create the minimal directory hierarchy. I suppose it's worth floating the idea that the lfs user could even "download" the sources, although that would require the creation of the lfs user a lot further "up" the Book. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
