[81fd230] | 10 | <para>Throughout this book, the environment variable <envar>LFS</envar> will
|
---|
| 11 | be used several times. It is paramount that this variable is always defined.
|
---|
| 12 | It should be set to the mount point chosen for the LFS partition.
|
---|
| 13 | Check that the <envar>LFS</envar> variable is set up properly with:</para>
|
---|
| 14 |
|
---|
| 15 | <screen><userinput>echo $LFS</userinput></screen>
|
---|
| 16 |
|
---|
| 17 | <para>Make sure the output shows the path to the LFS partition's mount
|
---|
| 18 | point, which is <filename class="directory">/mnt/lfs</filename> if the
|
---|
| 19 | provided example was followed. If the output is incorrect, the
|
---|
| 20 | variable can be set with:</para>
|
---|
| 21 |
|
---|
| 22 | <screen><userinput>export LFS=/mnt/lfs</userinput></screen>
|
---|
| 23 |
|
---|
| 24 | <para>Having this variable set is beneficial in that commands such as
|
---|
| 25 | <command>mkdir $LFS/tools</command> can be typed literally. The shell
|
---|
| 26 | will automatically replace <quote>$LFS</quote> with
|
---|
| 27 | <quote>/mnt/lfs</quote> (or whatever the variable was set to) when it
|
---|
| 28 | processes the command line.</para>
|
---|
| 29 |
|
---|
| 30 | <para>Do not forget to check that <envar>$LFS</envar> is set whenever
|
---|
| 31 | you leave and reenter the current working environment (as when doing a
|
---|
| 32 | <quote>su</quote> to <emphasis>root</emphasis> or another user).</para>
