- <title>Entering the Chroot Environment</title>
- <para>It is time to enter the chroot environment to begin building and
- installing the final LFS system. As user <systemitem
- class="username">root</systemitem>, run the following command to enter the
- realm that is, at the moment, populated with only the temporary tools:</para>
- <screen><userinput>chroot "$LFS" /tools/bin/env -i \
- HOME=/root \
- TERM="$TERM" \
- PS1='\u:\w\$ ' \
- PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/tools/bin \
- /tools/bin/bash --login +h</userinput></screen>
- <para>The <parameter>-i</parameter> option given to the <command>env</command>
- command will clear all variables of the chroot environment. After that, only
- the <envar>HOME</envar>, <envar>TERM</envar>, <envar>PS1</envar>, and
- <envar>PATH</envar> variables are set again. The
- <parameter>TERM=$TERM</parameter> construct will set the <envar>TERM</envar>
- variable inside chroot to the same value as outside chroot. This variable is
- needed for programs like <command>vim</command> and <command>less</command>
- to operate properly. If other variables are needed, such as
- <envar>CFLAGS</envar> or <envar>CXXFLAGS</envar>, this is a good place to set
- them again.</para>
- <para>From this point on, there is no need to use the
- <envar>LFS</envar> variable anymore, because all work will be restricted
- to the LFS file system. This is because the Bash shell is told that
- <filename class="directory">$LFS</filename> is now the root
- (<filename class="directory">/</filename>) directory.</para>
- <para>Notice that <filename class="directory">/tools/bin</filename> comes last
- in the <envar>PATH</envar>. This means that a temporary tool will no longer be
- used once its final version is installed. This occurs when the shell does not
- <quote>remember</quote> the locations of executed binaries—for this
- reason, hashing is switched off by passing the <parameter>+h</parameter> option
- to <command>bash</command>.</para>
- <para>Note that the <command>bash</command> prompt will say
- <computeroutput>I have no name!</computeroutput> This is normal because the
- <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> file has not been created yet.</para>
- <note>
- <para>It is important that all the commands throughout the remainder of this
- chapter and the following chapters are run from within the chroot
- environment. If you leave this environment for any reason (rebooting for
- example), ensure that the virtual kernel filesystems are mounted as
- explained in <xref linkend="ch-system-bindmount"/> and <xref
- linkend="ch-system-kernfsmount"/> and enter chroot again before continuing
- with the installation.</para>
