[b822811]5<para>When we have entered the chroot'ed environment in the next section we
[6370fa6]6want to export a couple of environment variables in that shell such as
[21651dc]7PS1, PATH and others variables which are good to have set. For that
8purpose we'll create the $LFS/root/.bash_profile file which will be read
[b822811]9by bash when we enter the chroot environment.</para>

[b822811]25<para>The PS1 variable is an environment variable that controls the appearance
26of the command prompt. See the bash man page for details how this variable
[5e38fb0]27is constructed. Additional environment variables, aliases and so forth that are
[b822811]28needed and/or wanted can be added at your own discretion.</para>
