|

| [b2a9f85] | 12 | <para>The intention of <acronym>LFS</acronym> is to provide a basic system
|
|---|
| 13 | which you can build upon. There are several things, about tidying up the
|
|---|
| 14 | system, which many people wonder about once they have done the base install.
|
|---|
| [f45b1953] | 15 | We hope to cover these issues in this chapter.</para>

| 16 |
|
|---|
| [898b7bb] | 17 | <para>Most people coming from non-Unix like backgrounds to Linux find the
|
|---|
| [f45b1953] | 18 | concept of text-only configuration files slightly strange. In Linux,
|
|---|
| 19 | just about all configuration is done via text files. The majority of
|
|---|
| 20 | these files can be found in the <filename>/etc</filename> hierarchy.
|
|---|
| 21 | There are often graphical configuration programs available for different
|
|---|
| [5e18c49c] | 22 | subsystems but most are simply pretty front ends to the process
|
|---|
| [f45b1953] | 23 | of editing the file. The advantage of text-only configuration is that
|
|---|
| [64d97b7c] | 24 | you can edit parameters using your favorite text editor, whether that
|
|---|
| [898b7bb] | 25 | be <command>vim</command>, <command>emacs</command>, or anything else.</para>
|
|---|
| [f45b1953] | 26 |
|
|---|
| [cfc2a54] | 27 | <para>The first task is making a recovery diskette because it's the most
|
|---|
| 28 | critical need. Then the system is configured to ease addition of
|
|---|
| [898b7bb] | 29 | new users, in <xref linkend="postlfs-config-bootdisk"/>, because this
|
|---|
| 30 | can affect the choices you make in the two subsequent topics—<xref
|
|---|
| 31 | linkend="postlfs-config-profile"/> and <xref linkend="postlfs-config-vimrc"/>.</para>
|
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | <para> The remaining topics, <xref linkend="postlfs-config-logon"/>,
|
|---|
| 34 | <xref linkend="postlfs-config-shells"/>, <xref linkend="postlfs-config-random"/>,
|
|---|
| 35 | <xref linkend="compressdoc"/>, <xref linkend="autofs"/>, and
|
|---|
| 36 | <xref linkend="postlfs-config-netfs"/> are then addressed, in that order. They
|
|---|
| [0290a023] | 37 | don't have much interaction with the other topics in this chapter.</para>
