| 13 | <para>This chapter shows how to complete the temporary tools to create |
|---|
| 14 | a minimal system that will be used to boot the target machine and to build |
|---|
| 15 | the final system packages.</para> |
|---|
| 16 | |
|---|
| 17 | <para>There are a few additional packages that will need to be |
|---|
| 18 | installed to allow you to boot the minimal system. Most of these |
|---|
| 19 | packages will be installed onto the root or in /usr on the LFS |
|---|
| 20 | partition ($LFS/bin, $LFS/usr/lib, etc...), rather than /tools. |
|---|
| 21 | However, since you are still installing these packages from the host |
|---|
| 22 | system, these packages will need to be installed using the "DESTDIR" |
|---|
| 23 | option with make.</para> |
|---|
| 24 | |
|---|
| 25 | <para>More detailed info about DESTDIR needed here...</para> |
|---|
| 26 | |
|---|
| 27 | <para>Also, since you will need to create directories and install |
|---|
| 28 | packages in them in $LFS (and of course don't want to use root to do |
|---|
| 29 | this, to avoid damage to the host system), outside of /tools and |
|---|
| 30 | /cross-tools, you will need to temporarily change the ownership of |
|---|
| 31 | $LFS to the <systemitem class="username">lfs</systemitem> user. Run |
|---|
| 32 | the following command as <systemitem |
|---|
| 33 | class="username">root</systemitem>:</para> |
