+ for building the temporary system. We will create a directory in
+ <filename class="directory">$LFS</filename> for the installation of the
+ temporary tools, add an unprivileged user to reduce risk,
+ and create an appropriate build environment for that user. We will also
+ explain the unit of time we use to measure how long LFS packages take to
