<?dbhtml filename="stripping.html"?>
-<para>The steps in this section are optional, but if your LFS partition is
-rather small, you will be glad to learn that you can remove some unnecessary
-things. The executables and libraries you have built so far contain about 130
-MB of unneeded debugging symbols. Remove those symbols with:</para>
-
<screen><userinput>strip --strip-debug /tools/lib/*
strip --strip-unneeded /tools/{,s}bin/*</userinput></screen>
-<para>The last of the above commands will skip some twenty files, reporting
-that it doesn't recognize their file format. Most of them are scripts instead
-of binaries.</para>
-
-<para>Take care <emphasis>not</emphasis> to use
-<parameter>--strip-unneeded</parameter> on the libraries -- the static ones
-would be destroyed and you would have to build the three toolchain packages
-all over again.</para>
-
-<para>To save another 30 MB, you can remove all the documentation:</para>
-
<screen><userinput>rm -rf /tools/{doc,info,man}</userinput></screen>
-<para>You will now need to have at least 850 MB of free space on your LFS
-file system to be able to build and install Glibc in the next phase. If you can
-build and install Glibc, you can build and install the rest too.</para>
