[b822811]5<para>Now that we have created a file system, it is ready for use. All we have
[0c396df]6to do to be able to access the partition (as in reading data from and writing
7data to) is mount it. If it is mounted under /mnt/lfs, this partition can
8be accessed by cd'ing to the /mnt/lfs directory. This book will assume
9that the partition was mounted under /mnt/lfs. It doesn't matter which
[b822811]10directory is chosen, just make sure you remember what you chose.</para>
11
12<para>Create the /mnt/lfs directory by running:</para>
13
14<para><screen><userinput>mkdir -p /mnt/lfs</userinput></screen></para>
15
16<para>Now mount the LFS partition by running:</para>
17
18<para><screen><userinput>mount /dev/xxx /mnt/lfs</userinput></screen></para>
19
20<para>Replace <quote>xxx</quote> by the partition's designation (like hda11).</para>
21
22<para>This directory (/mnt/lfs) is the $LFS variable you have read about
[12962a5]23back in chapter 2. If you were planning to make use of the $LFS environment
24variable, <userinput>export LFS=/mnt/lfs</userinput> has to be executed
25now.</para>
[6370fa6]26
[3566b53]27<para>If you decided to create multiple partitions for LFS (say $LFS and
28$LFS/usr), mount them like this:</para>
29
30<para><screen><userinput>mkdir -p /mnt/lfs &amp;&amp;
31mount /dev/xxx /mnt/lfs &amp;&amp;
32mkdir /mnt/lfs/usr &amp;&amp;
33mount /dev/yyy /mnt/lfs/usr</userinput></screen></para>
34
35<para>Of course, replace /dev/xxx and /dev/yyy with the appropriate
36partition designations.</para>
