11 | <title>Mounting the New Partition</title> |
---|
12 | |
---|
13 | <para>Now that a file system has been created, the partition needs to |
---|
14 | be made accessible. In order to do this, the partition needs to be |
---|
15 | mounted at a chosen mount point. For the purposes of this book, it is |
---|
16 | assumed that the file system is mounted under <filename |
---|
17 | class="directory">/mnt/lfs</filename>, but the directory choice is up |
---|
18 | to you.</para> |
---|
19 | |
---|
20 | <para>Choose a mount point and assign it to the <envar>LFS</envar> |
---|
21 | environment variable by running:</para> |
---|
22 | |
---|
23 | <screen><userinput>export LFS=/mnt/lfs</userinput></screen> |
---|
24 | |
---|
25 | <para>Next, create the mount point and mount the CLFS file system by |
---|
26 | running:</para> |
---|
27 | |
---|
28 | <screen><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS |
---|
29 | mount -v /dev/<replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> $LFS</userinput></screen> |
---|
30 | |
---|
31 | <para>Replace <replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> with the designation of |
---|
32 | the CLFS partition.</para> |
---|
33 | |
---|
34 | <para>If using multiple partitions for LFS (e.g., one for <filename |
---|
35 | class="directory">/</filename> and another for <filename |
---|
36 | class="directory">/usr</filename>), mount them using:</para> |
---|
37 | |
---|
38 | <screen><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS |
---|
39 | mount -v /dev/<replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> $LFS |
---|
40 | mkdir -v $LFS/usr |
---|
41 | mount -v /dev/<replaceable>[yyy]</replaceable> $LFS/usr</userinput></screen> |
---|
42 | |
---|
43 | <para>Replace <replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> and |
---|
44 | <replaceable>[yyy]</replaceable> with the appropriate partition |
---|
45 | names.</para> |
---|
46 | |
---|
47 | <para>Ensure that this new partition is not mounted with permissions |
---|
48 | that are too restrictive (such as the nosuid, nodev, or noatime options). |
---|
49 | Run the <command>mount</command> command without any parameters to see |
---|
50 | what options are set for the mounted CLFS partition. If |
---|
51 | <option>nosuid</option>, <option>nodev</option>, and/or |
---|
52 | <option>noatime</option> are set, the partition will need to be |
---|
53 | remounted.</para> |
---|
54 | |
---|
55 | <para>Now that there is an established place to work, it is time to |
---|
56 | download the packages.</para> |
