+<title>Installation of Glibc</title>
+
+<para>
+Unpack the glibc-crypt and glibc-linuxthreads in the glibc-2.1.3
+directory, not in /usr/src. Don't enter the created directories. Just
+unpack them and leave it with that.

+
+<para>
+A few default parameters of Glibc need to be changed, such as the
+directory where the shared libraries are supposed to be installed in and
+the directory that contains the system configuration files. For this
+purpose you need to create the <filename class="directory">
+$LFS/usr/src/glibc-build</filename> directory and cd into that directory
+with:
+</para>
+
+<blockquote><literallayout>
+
+ <userinput>mkdir /usr/src/glibc-build &amp;&amp;</userinput>
+ <userinput>cd /usr/src/glibc-build</userinput>
+
+</literallayout></blockquote>
+
+<para>
+In that directory you create a new file <filename>configparms</filename>
+by running the following:
+</para>
+
+<literallayout>
+
+<userinput>cat &gt; configparms &lt;&lt; "EOF"</userinput>
+# Begin configparms
+
+slibdir=/lib
+sysconfdir=/etc
+
+# End configparms
+<userinput>EOF</userinput>
+
+</literallayout>
+
+<para>
+Change to the
+<filename class="directory">$LFS/usr/src/glibc-build</filename>
+directory and install Glibc by running the following commands:
