  9. <title>Creating the Minimal directory layout in LFS filesystem</title>
  10. <para>The first task performed in the LFS partition is to create a minimal
  11. directory hierarchy so that programs compiled in <xref
  12. linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/> may be installed in their final
  13. location. This is needed so that those temporary programs be overwritten
  14. when rebuilding them in <xref linkend="chapter-building-system"/>.</para>
  15. <para>Create the required directory layout by running the following as
  16. <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>:</para>
  17. <screen><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS/{usr,lib,var,etc,bin,sbin,lib64}</userinput></screen>
  18. <para>Programs in <xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/> will be compiled
  19. with a cross-compiler (more details in section <xref
  20. linkend="ch-tools-toolchaintechnotes"/>). In order to separate this
  21. cross-compiler from the other programs, it will be installed in a special
  22. directory. Create this directory with:</para>
  23. <screen><userinput>mkdir -pv $LFS/tools</userinput></screen>
