- <title>Creating the $LFS/stage1 directory</title>
- <?dbhtml filename="creatingstage1dir.html" dir="chapter05"?>
- <para>All programs compiled in this chapter will be installed under <filename
- class="directory">$LFS/stage1</filename> to keep them separate from the
- programs compiled in the next chapter. The programs compiled here are only
- temporary tools and won't be a part of the final LFS system and by keeping them
- in a separate directory, we can later easily throw them away. Create the
- required directory by running the following:</para>
- <para><screen><userinput>mkdir $LFS/stage1</userinput></screen></para>
- <para>The next step is to create a "/stage1" symlink on the host system. It
- will point to the directory we just created on the LFS partition:</para>
- <para><screen><userinput>ln -s $LFS/stage1 /</userinput></screen></para>
- <para>This ensures our toolchain will look in the same place (i.e. /stage1)
- in both Chapters 5 and 6 (when we are inside the chroot). This is an
- important concept to grasp. Don't worry if it's not clear right now, all
- will make sense once we get into Chapter 6.</para>
