    110     GUID Partition Table (GPT), then a small, typically 1 MB, partition must be
    111     created if it does not already exist.  This partition is not formatted, but
    112     must be available for GRUB to use during installation of the boot
    113     loader. This partition will normally be labeled 'BIOS Boot' if using
    114     <command>fdisk</command> or have a code of <emphasis>EF02</emphasis> if
    115     using the <command>gdisk</command> command.</para>

    118     uses to boot the system.  This is not necessarily the drive that holds
    119     the LFS root partition. The disks on a system may use different
    120     partition table types. The necessity of the Grub Bios partition depends
    121     only on the partition table type of the boot disk.</para></note>

    1111  <title>LFS Target Architectures</title>

    13 <para>The primary target architectures of LFS are the AMD/Intel x86 (32-bit)
    14 and x86_64 (64-bit) CPUs.  On the other hand, the instructions in this book are
    15 also known to work, with some modifications, with the Power PC and ARM CPUs. To
    16 build a system that utilizes one of these alternative CPUs, the main prerequisite, in
    17 addition to those on the next page, is an existing Linux system such as an
    18 earlier LFS installation, Ubuntu, Red Hat/Fedora, SuSE, or some other distribution
    19 that targets that architecture. (Note that a 32-bit
    20 distribution can be installed and used as a host system on a 64-bit AMD/Intel
    21 computer.)</para>
     13<para>The target architectures of this LFS edition are ARM64 (sometimes
     14called AArch64) CPUs.  On the other hand, the instructions in this book may
     15work on 32-bit ARM CPUs with some modifications. To build a system that
     16utilizes one of these alternative CPUs, the main prerequisite, in
     17addition to those on
     18the next page, is an existing Linux system such as an earlier LFS
     19installation, Ubuntu, Red Hat/Fedora, SuSE, or other distribution that
     20targets the architecture that you have.</para>
    2221
    23 <para>The gain from building on a 64-bit system, as
    24 compared to a 32-bit system, is minimal.
    25 For example, in a test build of LFS-9.1 on a Core i7-4790 CPU based system,
    26 using 4 cores, the following statistics were measured:</para>
    27 
    28 <screen><computeroutput>Architecture Build Time     Build Size
    29 32-bit       239.9 minutes  3.6 GB
    30 64-bit       233.2 minutes  4.4 GB</computeroutput></screen>
    31 
    32 <para>As you can see, on the same hardware, the 64-bit build is only 3% faster
    33 (and 22% larger) than the 32-bit build. If you plan to use LFS as a LAMP
    34 server, or a firewall, a 32-bit CPU may be good enough. On the other
    35 hand, several packages in BLFS now need more than 4 GB of RAM to be built
    36 and/or to run; if you plan to use LFS as a desktop, the LFS authors
    37 recommend building a 64-bit system.</para>
    38 
    39 <para>The default 64-bit build that results from LFS is a
    40 <quote>pure</quote> 64-bit system. That is, it supports 64-bit executables
    41 only. Building a <quote>multi-lib</quote> system requires compiling many
     22<para>The build results from this LFS edition is considered a
     23<quote>pure</quote> 64-bit system.  That is, it supports 64-bit executables
     24only.  Building a <quote>multi-lib</quote> system requires compiling many
    4225applications twice, once for a 32-bit system and once for a 64-bit system.
    4326This is not directly supported in LFS because it would interfere with the
    4427educational objective of providing the minimal instructions needed for a
    45 basic Linux system. Some of the LFS/BLFS editors maintain a multilib fork
     28base Linux system. Some LFS/BLFS editors maintain a multilib fork
    4629of LFS, accessible at <ulink
    4730url="https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~thomas/multilib/index.html"/>. But
    48 that's an advanced topic.</para>
     31the multilib edition is for x86_64, and multilib is an advanced topic
     32anyway.</para>
