2<title>How to download the software</title>

4<para>Throughout this document, I will assume that all the
5packages that were downloaded are placed somewhere in $LFS/usr/src.</para>
6
7<para>I use the convention of having a $LFS/usr/src/sources directory.
8Under sources, I have the directory 0-9 and the directories a
9through z. A package like sysvinit-2.78.tar.gz is stored under
10$LFS/usr/src/sources/s/. A package like bash-2.04.tar.gz is stored under
11$LFS/usr/src/sources/b/, and so forth. This convention does not have to be
12followed, of course; I was just giving an example. It's better to keep
13the packages out of $LFS/usr/src and move them to a subdirectory, so
14we'll have a clean $LFS/usr/src directory in which we will unpack the
15packages and work with them.</para>
16
17<para>The next chapter contains the list of all the packages that need to be
18downloaded,
19but the partition that is going to contain our LFS system isn't created yet.
20Therefore, the files are temporarily stored somewhere else (it's up to
21you to decide where this 'else' is) and later moved to $LFS/usr/src/ when
22the chapter in which the new partition is prepared has been finished.</para>
