| 10 | <para>Throughout this book the environment variable LFS will be used several
|
|---|
| 11 | times. It is paramount that this variable is always defined. It should be set
|
|---|
| 12 | to the mount point you chose for your LFS partition. Check that your LFS
|
|---|
| 13 | 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 your LFS partition's mount
|
|---|
| 18 | point, which is <filename class="directory">/mnt/lfs</filename> if you
|
|---|
| 19 | followed our example. If the output is wrong, you can always set the variable
|
|---|
| 20 | with:</para>
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | <screen><userinput>export LFS=/mnt/lfs</userinput></screen>
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | <para>Having this variable set means that if you are told to run a command like
|
|---|
| 25 | <userinput>mkdir $LFS/tools</userinput>, you can type it literally. Your shell
|
|---|
| 26 | will replace "$LFS" with "/mnt/lfs" (or whatever you set the variable to) when
|
|---|
| 27 | it processes the command line.</para>
|
|---|
| 28 |
|
|---|
| 29 | <para>Don't forget to check that <quote>$LFS</quote> is set whenever you leave and
|
|---|
| 30 | reenter the environment (as when doing an <quote>su</quote> to root or another user).
