  <para>
    The BLFS Systemd Units package will be used throughout the BLFS book
    for systemd unit files. Each systemd unit has a separate install target.
    It is recommended you keep the package source directory around until
    completion of your BLFS system. When a systemd unit is requested from BLFS
    Systemd Units, simply change to the directory and as the
    <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user, execute the given
    <command>make install-<replaceable>&lt;systemd-unit&gt;</replaceable></command>
    command. This command installs the systemd unit to its proper location (along
    with any auxiliary configuration scripts) and also enables it by default.
  </para>

  <note>
    <para>
      It is advisable to peruse each systemd unit before installation to
      ascertain that it satisfies your need.
