| | | | English idiom. Remove some superfluous verbiage here and there.
* Cleaned up English idiom just a trifle.David Bryant2022-10-281-2/+2
|
* more clarification of "log in as lfs user"Xi Ruoyao2022-09-292-10/+12
| | | | | | And, don't recommended to "log in as lfs through a DM" anymore: if you log in through a DM then start a terminal emulator, the first shell in the emulator is often a non-login shell. It's not something we expect.
* addinguser: don't say "log in as lfs user"Xi Ruoyao2022-09-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "log in" is a specifically defined action on UNIces. When you log in as a user, an entry will be added into /run/utmp and /var/log/wtmp. But when you switch to lfs with "su", this won't happen. "man su" also describes "--login" as: Provide an environment similar to what the user would expect had the user logged in directly. It's "similar to" logged in, not "really" logged in. So, don't say "log in" or the users may assume they must really log in as lfs in a VT or DM.
* Adjust English idiom and clarify directions (chapters 4.5 and 4.6).David Bryant2022-09-272-17/+17
|
* Tweaked English idiom / clarified directiions in chapters 4.3 and 4.4.David Bryant2022-09-272-18/+19

* Tweak introduction as Pierre Labastie suggested (chapter 4.2).David Bryant2022-09-271-2/+3

* Replace tabs with spacesPierre Labastie2022-09-111-1/+1
|
* decorate the references to root and lfs userXi Ruoyao2022-04-211-2/+2
| | | | | The references already correctly decorated are not changed because "if it's not broken don't fix it".
* don't chown $LFS/sources to lfs (#5018)Xi Ruoyao2022-03-051-6/+0
|
* remove "+h" in bash commands in chroot (#4998)Xi Ruoyao2022-02-051-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the new cross-compilation approach, the $PATH in chroot does not contain '/tools/bin'. So "+h" is useless in chroot as the newly installed tools always replace the temporary counterpart at the same location. "+h" in chapter4/settingenviron.xml is kept deliberately. Currently $LFS/tools/bin only contains programs prefixed with "x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-", and it's highly unlikely that any distro will ever ship a program named with such prefix. So it may seems that we can remove this "+h" as well. However, the situation may change in future and we can take this oppertunity to teach the advantage and disvantage of bash hash feature.
* move the ln note back to chap 5 glibcXi Ruoyao2021-11-121-9/+0
| | | | | | It was moved to chapter 4 during merged-/usr update. However the ln commands in chapater 4 are "trivial", so move it back to chapter 5 glibc where we start to use a "different syntactic version" of it.
* Remove spaces at end o lines - chapter04Pierre Labastie2021-09-072-2/+2
