<title>Building LFS in Stages</title>
<para>LFS is designed to be built in one session. That is, the
instructions assume that the system will not be shut down
during the process. That does not mean that the system has to
be done in one sitting. The issue is that certain procedures
have to be re-accomplished after a reboot if resuming LFS at
different points.</para>
<sect2>
<title>Chapters 1–4</title>
<para>These chapters are accomplished on the host system. When
restarting, be careful of the following:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Procedures done as the root user after Section 2.4 need to
have the LFS environment variable set <emphasis>FOR THE ROOT
USER</emphasis>.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</sect2>
<sect2>
<title>Chapter 5</title>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>The /mnt/lfs partition must be mounted.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>This chapter includes three parts. The first one, from
<quote>Binutils Pass1</quote> to <quote>Stripping</quote>
must be done by user <emphasis>lfs</emphasis>. A
<command>su - lfs</command> needs to be done before any task in this
part. The second part, from <quote>Changing Ownership</quote> to
<quote>Entering the Chroot Environment</quote> must be done as the
root user, with LFS set for the root user. The third part, from
<quote>Creating Directories</quote> to the end of the chapter, is done
in the chroot environment. The same procedures as for chapter 6
apply.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The procedures in <xref linkend='ch-tools-generalinstructions'/>
are critical. If there is any
doubt about installing a package, ensure any previously expanded
tarballs are removed, re-extract the package files, and complete all
instructions in that section.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</sect2>
<sect2>
<title>Chapters 6–8</title>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>The /mnt/lfs partition must be mounted.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para> When entering chroot, the LFS environment variable must be set
for root. The LFS variable is not used otherwise.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para> The virtual file systems must be mounted. This can be done
before or after entering chroot by changing to a host virtual terminal
and, as root, running the commands in
<xref linkend='ch-system-bindmount'/> and
<xref linkend='ch-system-kernfsmount'/>.</para>
