+ <para>This part is divided into three stages: first building a cross
|
|
|
+ compiler and its associated libraries; second, use this cross toolchain
|
|
|
+ to build several utilities in a way that isolates them from the host
|
|
|
+ distribution; third, enter the chroot environment, which further improves
|
|
|
+ host isolation, and build the remaining tools needed to build the final
|
|
|
+ system.</para>

|
|
|
+ <important><para>With this part begins the real work of building a new
|
|
|
+ system. It requires much care in ensuring that the instructions are
|
|
|
+ followed exactly as the book shows them. You should try to understand
|
|
|
+ what they do, and whatever your eagerness to finish your build, you should
|
|
|
+ refrain from blindly type them as shown, but rather read documentation when
|
|
|
+ there is something you do not understand. Also, keep track of your typing
|
|
|
+ and of the output of commands, by sending them to a file, using the
|
|
|
+ <command>tee</command> utility. This allows for better diagnosing
|
|
|
+ if something gets wrong.</para></important>
