11 | <title>Mounting the New Partition</title>
|

12 |
|
---|
13 | <para>Now that a file system has been created, the partition needs to
|
---|
14 | be made accessible. In order to do this, the partition needs to be
|
---|
15 | mounted at a chosen mount point. For the purposes of this book, it is
|
---|
16 | assumed that the file system is mounted under <filename
|
---|
17 | class="directory">/mnt/lfs</filename>, but the directory choice is up
|
---|
18 | to you.</para>
|
---|
19 |
|
---|
20 | <para>Choose a mount point and assign it to the <envar>LFS</envar>
|
---|
21 | environment variable by running:</para>
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | <screen role="nodump"><userinput>export LFS=/mnt/lfs</userinput></screen>
|
---|
24 |
|
---|
25 | <para>Next, create the mount point and mount the LFS file system by
|
---|
26 | running:</para>
|
---|
27 |
|
---|
28 | <screen role="nodump"><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS
|
---|
29 | mount -v -t ext3 /dev/<replaceable><xxx></replaceable> $LFS</userinput></screen>
|
---|
30 |
|
---|
31 | <para>Replace <replaceable><xxx></replaceable> with the designation of the LFS
|
---|
32 | partition.</para>
|
---|
33 |
|
---|
34 | <para>If using multiple partitions for LFS (e.g., one for <filename
|
---|
35 | class="directory">/</filename> and another for <filename
|
---|
36 | class="directory">/usr</filename>), mount them using:</para>
|
---|
37 |
|
---|
38 | <screen role="nodump"><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS
|
---|
39 | mount -v -t ext3 /dev/<replaceable><xxx></replaceable> $LFS
|
---|
40 | mkdir -v $LFS/usr
|
---|
41 | mount -v -t ext3 /dev/<replaceable><yyy></replaceable> $LFS/usr</userinput></screen>
|
---|
42 |
|
---|
43 | <para>Replace <replaceable><xxx></replaceable> and
|
---|
44 | <replaceable><yyy></replaceable> with the appropriate partition
|
---|
45 | names.</para>
|
---|
46 |
|
---|
47 | <para>Ensure that this new partition is not mounted with permissions that
|
---|
48 | are too restrictive (such as the <option>nosuid</option>, <option>nodev</option>,
|
---|
49 | or <option>noatime</option> options). Run the <command>mount</command> command
|
---|
50 | without any parameters to see what options are set for the mounted LFS
|
---|
51 | partition. If <option>nosuid</option>, <option>nodev</option>, and/or
|
---|
52 | <option>noatime</option> are set, the partition will need to be
|
---|
53 | remounted.</para>
|
---|
54 |
|
---|
55 | <para>If you are using a <systemitem
|
---|
56 | class="filesystem">swap</systemitem> partition, ensure that it is enabled
|
---|
57 | using the <command>swapon</command> command:</para>
|
---|
58 |
|
---|
59 | <screen role="nodump"><userinput>/sbin/swapon -v /dev/<replaceable><zzz></replaceable></userinput></screen>
|
---|
60 |
|
---|
61 | <para>Replace <replaceable><zzz></replaceable> with the name of the
|
---|
62 | <systemitem class="filesystem">swap</systemitem> partition.</para>
|
---|
63 |
|
---|
64 | <para>Now that there is an established place to work, it is time to
|
---|
65 | download the packages.</para>
