|
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 | <para>Most likely, you have been using a web browser or PDF viewer to read
|
|---|
| 14 | the CLFS book so far. However, the temporary system in
|
|---|
| 15 | <filename class="directory">/tools</filename> does not have
|
|---|
| 16 | any of these, so you will need to find a way to continue following the book
|
|---|
| 17 | after booting into the temporary build environment. One possibility might
|
|---|
| 18 | be to simply have the book open on another computer, or even read a printed
|
|---|
| 19 | copy, though one downside to this is that you cannot copy-and-paste commands.
|
|---|
| 20 | Another solution could be to convert the CLFS book into plain text, thus
|
|---|
| 21 | allowing it to be viewed with <command>more</command>, by using a command
|
|---|
| 22 | such as the following:</para>
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | <screen><userinput>lynx -dump /path/to/clfs/book.html > ${CLFS}/root/CLFS-book.txt</userinput></screen>
|
|---|
| 25 |
|
|---|
| 26 | <para>Other possible solutions include cross-compiling and installing
|
|---|
| 27 | additional programs before booting, such as Lynx or Links to view the book,
|
|---|
| 28 | or OpenSSH to allow remote login. See the CLFS Hints website at
|
|---|
| 29 | <ulink url="http://hints.cross-lfs.org"/> for more suggestions that other
|
|---|
| 30 | users have come up with.</para>
