5<para>Now that we have created a file system, it is ready for use. All we have
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
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
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>
26
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/usr &amp;&amp;
31mount /dev/xxx /mnt/lfs &amp;&amp;
32mount /dev/yyy /mnt/lfs/usr</userinput></screen></para>
33
34<para>Of course, replace /dev/xxx and /dev/yyy with the appropriate
35partition designations.</para>
