+  <para>As an alternative to installing an entire separate distribution
+  onto your machine, you may wish to use the Linux From Scratch LiveCD.
+  This CD works well as a host system, providing all the tools you need to
+  successfully follow the instructions in this book. It does also
+  contain source packages and patches for the LFS book, and a copy of the LFS
+  book, but not the needed packages or book for CLFS. You can still use the
+  CD for building CLFS, but you will need to download the packages, patches
+  and book separately. You can also look at

+  with those for CLFS. Once you have the CD, no network connection or
+  additional downloads are necessary. For more information about the LFS
+  LiveCD or to download a copy, visit <ulink url="&livecd-root;"/>.</para>
