2<title>Where to store the downloaded software</title>

5<para>Throughout this document, we will assume that all the
6packages that were downloaded are placed somewhere in $LFS/usr/src.</para>

8<para>While it doesn't matter at all where you save the downloaded
9packages, we recommend storing it at least on the LFS partition. This
10just makes sense because you need to have access to those those files
11when you chroot to $LFS and when you boot into the LFS system, although
12access when booted to $LFS could be handled other ways. $LFS/usr/src is
13just a logical place to store source code, but by no means a requirement.
14You may even want to create a subdirectory under $LFS/usr/src for tarball
15storage. That way you can separate tarballs from temporary build
16directories, but again that's up to you.</para>
17
18<para>The next chapter contains a list of all the packages that need to be
19downloaded. The LFS partition isn't created yet, so you can't store it
20there yet. Just save it elsewhere for now, and when the LFS partition is
21created, move them over.</para>
