     13  <para>This chapter shows how to complete the build of temporary tools to
     14  create a minimal system that will be used to boot the target machine and to
     15  build the final system packages.</para>

    1717  <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>

     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, using the
     21  "DESTDIR" option with make. This will require the
     22  <systemitem class="username">lfs</systemitem> user to have write access to
     23  the rest of the $LFS partition, so you will need to temporarily change the
     24  ownership of $LFS to the <systemitem class="username">lfs</systemitem> user.
     25  Run the following command as <systemitem
