+First, let me tell you that it is possible to build LFS on only one partition,
+which is where your original distribution is installed. This is not recommended
+if it is the first time you try LFS, but may be useful if you are short on disk
+space. If you feel brave, take a look at the <ulink

+Now would be a good time to take a look at the <ulink
+url="http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-hints/optimization.txt">optimization
+hint</ulink> if you plan on using compiler optimization for the packages
+installed in the following chapter. Compiler optimization can make a program run
+faster, but may also cause some compilation problems. If you run into problems
+after having used optimization, always try it without optimizing to see if you
+can reproduce the problem.
