| 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 the directory specified by the
|
|---|
| 17 | <envar>LFS</envar> environment variable as described in the previous section.
|
|---|
| 18 | </para>
|
|---|
| 19 |
|
|---|
| 20 | <para>Create the mount point and mount the LFS file system by running:</para>
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | <screen role="nodump"><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS
|
|---|
| 23 | mount -v -t ext4 /dev/<replaceable><xxx></replaceable> $LFS</userinput></screen>
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | <para>Replace <replaceable><xxx></replaceable> with the designation of the LFS
|
|---|
| 26 | partition.</para>
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | <para>If using multiple partitions for LFS (e.g., one for <filename
|
|---|
| 29 | class="directory">/</filename> and another for <filename
|
|---|
| 30 | class="directory">/usr</filename>), mount them using:</para>
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | <screen role="nodump"><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS
|
|---|
| 33 | mount -v -t ext4 /dev/<replaceable><xxx></replaceable> $LFS
|
|---|
| 34 | mkdir -v $LFS/usr
|
|---|
| 35 | mount -v -t ext4 /dev/<replaceable><yyy></replaceable> $LFS/usr</userinput></screen>
|
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 | <para>Replace <replaceable><xxx></replaceable> and
|
|---|
| 38 | <replaceable><yyy></replaceable> with the appropriate partition
|
|---|
| 39 | names.</para>
|
|---|
| 40 |
|
|---|
| 41 | <para>Ensure that this new partition is not mounted with permissions that are
|
|---|
| 42 | too restrictive (such as the <option>nosuid</option> or
|
|---|
| 43 | <option>nodev</option> options). Run the <command>mount</command> command
|
|---|
| 44 | without any parameters to see what options are set for the mounted LFS
|
|---|
| 45 | partition. If <option>nosuid</option> and/or <option>nodev</option> are set,
|
|---|
| 46 | the partition will need to be remounted.</para>
|
|---|
| 47 |
|
|---|
| 48 | <warning><para>The above instructions assume that you will not be restarting
|
|---|
| 49 | your computer throughout the LFS process. If you shut down your system,
|
|---|
| 50 | you will either need to remount the LFS partition each time you restart
|
|---|
| 51 | the build process or modify your host system's /etc/fstab file to automatically
|
|---|
| 52 | remount it upon boot. For example:
|
|---|
| 53 |
|
|---|
| 54 | <screen role="nodump">/dev/<replaceable><xxx></replaceable> /mnt/lfs ext4 defaults 1 1</screen>
|
|---|
| 55 |
|
|---|
| 56 | If you use additional optional partitions, be sure to add them also.
|

|

|
|---|
| 60 |
|
|---|
| 61 | <para>If you are using a <systemitem
|
|---|
| 62 | class="filesystem">swap</systemitem> partition, ensure that it is enabled
|
|---|
| 63 | using the <command>swapon</command> command:</para>
|
|---|
| 64 |
|
|---|
| 65 | <screen role="nodump"><userinput>/sbin/swapon -v /dev/<replaceable><zzz></replaceable></userinput></screen>
|
|---|
| 66 |
|
|---|
| 67 | <para>Replace <replaceable><zzz></replaceable> with the name of the
|
|---|
| 68 | <systemitem class="filesystem">swap</systemitem> partition.</para>
