Hello,

I have received an e-mail message asking for a howto about installation 
of the LiveCD to a partition. It was previously available under the 
following conditions:

1. The recepient won't redistribute it
2. The recepient has built a recent LFS at least once
3. The recepient realizes that the LiveCD contents differ from LFS
4. The recepient unsubscribes from the support lists and agrees to be 
banned on #lfs-support IRC channel.

The person who sent me this message has formally satisfied all the above 
conditions. He has built LFS from the LiveCD, but was unable to satisfy 
LFS build dependencies from Ubuntu and Fedora (i.e., relied on the 
preconfiguredness of the LiveCD too much, btw this is 
http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/1735). In order to protect 
myself from such mails in the future, I change condition 2 to:

2new. The recepient has built a recent LFS at least once, starting from 
a non-livecd-based distribution and not using any automation tools.

I.e., Knoppix is also ruled out.
