-<!--
-<para>You are going to build your LFS system by using a previously installed
-Linux distribution (such as Debian, Mandrake, Red Hat, or SuSE). This existing
-Linux system (the host) will be used as a starting point, because you will need
-programs like a compiler, linker and shell to build the new system. Normally
-all the required tools are available if you selected <quote>development</quote>
-as one of the options when you installed your distribution.</para>
-
-<para>In <xref linkend="chapter-partitioning"/> you will first create a new Linux native
-partition and file system, the place where your new LFS system will be compiled
-and installed. Then in <xref linkend="chapter-getting-materials"/> you download all the
-packages and patches needed to build an LFS system, and store them on the new
-file system. In <xref linkend="chapter-final-preps"/> you set up a good
-environment to work in.</para>
-
-<para><xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/> then discusses the installation of a number
-of packages that will form the basic development suite (or <emphasis>toolchain</emphasis>) which is
-used to build the actual system in <xref linkend="chapter-building-system"/>. Some of these
-packages are needed to resolve circular dependencies - for example, to compile
-a compiler you need a compiler.</para>
-
-<para>The first thing to be done in <xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/> is build a
-first pass of the toolchain, made up of Binutils and GCC. The programs from
-these packages will be linked statically in order for them to be usable
-independently of the host system. The second thing to do is build Glibc, the
-C library. Glibc will be compiled by the toolchain programs just built in
-the first pass. The third thing to do is build a second pass of the toolchain.
-This time the toolchain will be dynamically linked against the newly built
-Glibc. The remaining <xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/> packages are all built using
-this second pass toolchain and dynamically linked against the new
-host-independent Glibc. When this is done, the LFS installation process will no
-longer depend on the host distribution, with the exception of the running
-kernel.</para>
-
-<para>You may be thinking that <quote>this seems like a lot of work, just to
-get away from my host distribution</quote>. Well, a full technical explanation
-is provided at the start of <xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/>, including some notes
-on the differences between statically and dynamically linked programs.</para>
-
-<para>In <xref linkend="chapter-building-system"/> your real LFS system will be built. The
-<command>chroot</command> (change root) program is used to enter a virtual environment and start
-a new shell whose root directory will be set to the LFS partition. This is very
-similar to rebooting and instructing the kernel to mount the LFS partition as
-the root partition. The reason that you don't actually reboot, but instead
-chroot, is that creating a bootable system requires additional work which isn't
-necessary just yet. But the major advantage is that <quote>chrooting</quote> allows you to
-continue using the host while LFS is being built. While waiting for package
-compilation to complete, you can simply switch to a different VC (Virtual
-Console) or X desktop and continue using the computer as you normally
-would.</para>
-
-<para>To finish the installation, the bootscripts are set up in
-<xref linkend="chapter-bootscripts"/>, the kernel and bootloader are set up in
-<xref linkend="chapter-bootable"/>, and <xref linkend="chapter-finalizing"/> contains some
-pointers to help you after you finish the book. Then, finally, you're ready to
-reboot your computer into your new LFS system.</para>
-
-<para>This is the process in a nutshell. Detailed information on the steps you 
-will take are discussed in the chapters and package descriptions as you 
-progress through them. If something isn't completely clear now, don't worry, 
-everything will fall into place soon.</para>
-
-<para>Please read <xref linkend="chapter-final-preps"/> carefully as it explains
- a few important things you should be aware of before you begin to work through
-<xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/> and beyond.</para>
