          <p>
            My journey to learn and better understand Linux began back in
            1998. I had just installed my first Linux distribution and had
            quickly become intrigued with the whole concept and philosophy
            behind Linux.
          </p>
          <p>
            There are always many ways to accomplish a single task. The same
            can be said about Linux distributions. A great many have existed
            over the years. Some still exist, some have morphed into
            something else, yet others have been relegated to our memories.
            They all do things differently to suit the needs of their target
            audience. Because so many different ways to accomplish the same
            end goal exist, I began to realize I no longer had to be limited
            by any one implementation. Prior to discovering Linux, we simply
            put up with issues in other Operating Systems as you had no
            choice. It was what it was, whether you liked it or not. With
            Linux, the concept of choice began to emerge. If you didn't like
            something, you were free, even encouraged, to change it.
          </p>
          <p>
            I tried a number of distributions and could not decide on any
            one. They were great systems in their own right. It wasn't a
            matter of right and wrong anymore. It had become a matter of
            personal taste. With all that choice available, it became
            apparent that there would not be a single system that would be
            perfect for me. So I set out to create my own Linux system that
            would fully conform to my personal preferences.
          </p>
          <p>
            To truly make it my own system, I resolved to compile everything
            from source code instead of using pre-compiled binary packages.
            This <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
            "quote">perfect</span>&rdquo;</span> Linux system would have the
            strengths of various systems without their perceived weaknesses.
            At first, the idea was rather daunting. I remained committed to
            the idea that such a system could be built.
          </p>
          <p>
            After sorting through issues such as circular dependencies and
            compile-time errors, I finally built a custom-built Linux system.
            It was fully operational and perfectly usable like any of the
            other Linux systems out there at the time. But it was my own
            creation. It was very satisfying to have put together such a
            system myself. The only thing better would have been to create
            each piece of software myself. This was the next best thing.
          </p>
          <p>
            As I shared my goals and experiences with other members of the
            Linux community, it became apparent that there was a sustained
            interest in these ideas. It quickly became plain that such
            custom-built Linux systems serve not only to meet user specific
            requirements, but also serve as an ideal learning opportunity for
            programmers and system administrators to enhance their (existing)
            Linux skills. Out of this broadened interest, the <span class=
            "emphasis"><em>Linux From Scratch Project</em></span> was born.
          </p>
          <p>
            This Linux From Scratch book is the central core around that
            project. It provides the background and instructions necessary
            for you to design and build your own system. While this book
            provides a template that will result in a correctly working
            system, you are free to alter the instructions to suit yourself,
            which is, in part, an important part of this project. You remain
            in control; we just lend a helping hand to get you started on
            your own journey.
          </p>
          <p>
            I sincerely hope you will have a great time working on your own
            Linux From Scratch system and enjoy the numerous benefits of
            having a system that is truly your own.

            There are many reasons why you would want to read this book. One
            of the questions many people raise is, <span class=
            "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">why go through all the hassle
            of manually building a Linux system from scratch when you can
            just download and install an existing one?</span>&rdquo;</span>
          </p>
          <p>
            One important reason for this project's existence is to help you
            learn how a Linux system works from the inside out. Building an
            LFS system helps demonstrate what makes Linux tick, and how
            things work together and depend on each other. One of the best
            things that this learning experience can provide is the ability
            to customize a Linux system to suit your own unique needs.
          </p>
          <p>
            Another key benefit of LFS is that it allows you to have more
            control over the system without relying on someone else's Linux
            implementation. With LFS, you are in the driver's seat and
            dictate every aspect of the system.
          </p>
          <p>
            LFS allows you to create very compact Linux systems. When
            installing regular distributions, you are often forced to install
            a great many programs which are probably never used or
            understood. These programs waste resources. You may argue that
            with today's hard drive and CPUs, such resources are no longer a
            consideration. Sometimes, however, you are still constrained by
            size considerations if nothing else. Think about bootable CDs,
            USB sticks, and embedded systems. Those are areas where LFS can
            be beneficial.
          </p>
          <p>
            Another advantage of a custom built Linux system is security. By
            compiling the entire system from source code, you are empowered
            to audit everything and apply all the security patches desired.
            It is no longer necessary to wait for somebody else to compile
            binary packages that fix a security hole. Unless you examine the
            patch and implement it yourself, you have no guarantee that the
            new binary package was built correctly and adequately fixes the
            problem.
          </p>
          <p>
            The goal of Linux From Scratch is to build a complete and usable
            foundation-level system. If you do not wish to build your own
            Linux system from scratch, you may nevertheless benefit from the
            information in this book.
          </p>
          <p>
            There are too many other good reasons to build your own LFS
            system to list them all here. In the end, education is by far the
            most powerful of reasons. As you continue in your LFS experience,
            you will discover the power that information and knowledge truly
            bring.

            </div>
          </div>
          <p>
            The primary target architectures of LFS are the AMD/Intel x86
            (32-bit) and x86_64 (64-bit) CPUs. On the other hand, the
            instructions in this book are also known to work, with some
            modifications, with the Power PC and ARM CPUs. To build a system
            that utilizes one of these CPUs, the main prerequisite, in
            addition to those on the next page, is an existing Linux system
            such as an earlier LFS installation, Ubuntu, Red Hat/Fedora,
            SuSE, or other distribution that targets the architecture that
            you have. Also note that a 32-bit distribution can be installed
            and used as a host system on a 64-bit AMD/Intel computer.
          </p>
          <p>
            For building LFS, the gain of building on a 64-bit system
            compared to a 32-bit system is minimal. For example, in a test
            build of LFS-9.1 on a Core i7-4790 CPU based system, using 4
            cores, the following statistics were measured:
          </p>
          <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">Architecture Build Time     Build Size
32-bit       239.9 minutes  3.6 GB
64-bit       233.2 minutes  4.4 GB</code>
</pre>
          <p>
            As you can see, on the same hardware, the 64-bit build is only 3%
            faster and is 22% larger than the 32-bit build. If you plan to
            use LFS as a LAMP server, or a firewall, a 32-bit CPU may be
            largely sufficient. On the other hand, several packages in BLFS
            now need more that 4GB of RAM to be built and/or to run, so that
            if you plan to use LFS as a desktop, the LFS authors recommend
            building on a 64-bit system.
          </p>
          <p>
            The default 64-bit build that results from LFS is considered a
            <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
            "quote">pure</span>&rdquo;</span> 64-bit system. That is, it
            supports 64-bit executables only. Building a <span class=
            "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">multi-lib</span>&rdquo;</span>
            system requires compiling many applications twice, once for a
            32-bit system and once for a 64-bit system. This is not directly
            supported in LFS because it would interfere with the educational
            objective of providing the instructions needed for a
            straightforward base Linux system. Some LFS/BLFS editors maintain
            a fork of LFS for multilib, which is accessible at <a class=

            But it is an advanced topic.

            Building an LFS system is not a simple task. It requires a
            certain level of existing knowledge of Unix system administration
            in order to resolve problems and correctly execute the commands
            listed. In particular, as an absolute minimum, you should already
            have the ability to use the command line (shell) to copy or move
            files and directories, list directory and file contents, and
            change the current directory. It is also expected that you have a
            reasonable knowledge of using and installing Linux software.
          </p>
          <p>
            Because the LFS book assumes <span class="emphasis"><em>at
            least</em></span> this basic level of skill, the various LFS
            support forums are unlikely to be able to provide you with much
            assistance in these areas. You will find that your questions
            regarding such basic knowledge will likely go unanswered or you
            will simply be referred to the LFS essential pre-reading list.
          </p>
          <p>
            Before building an LFS system, we recommend reading the

            possible. The primary standards are:

                <p>
                  The LSB has four separate standards: Core, Desktop, Runtime
                  Languages, and Imaging. In addition to generic requirements
                  there are also architecture specific requirements. There
                  are also two areas for trial use: Gtk3 and Graphics. LFS
                  attempts to conform to the architectures discussed in the
                  previous section.

                    Many people do not agree with the requirements of the
                    LSB. The main purpose of defining it is to ensure that
                    proprietary software will be able to be installed and run
                    properly on a compliant system. Since LFS is source
                    based, the user has complete control over what packages
                    are desired and many choose not to install some packages
                    that are specified by the LSB.

          <p>
            Creating a complete LFS system capable of passing the LSB
            certifications tests is possible, but not without many additional
            packages that are beyond the scope of LFS. These additional
            packages have installation instructions in BLFS.

            As stated earlier, the goal of LFS is to build a complete and
            usable foundation-level system. This includes all packages needed
            to replicate itself while providing a relatively minimal base
            from which to customize a more complete system based on the
            choices of the user. This does not mean that LFS is the smallest
            system possible. Several important packages are included that are
            not strictly required. The lists below document the rationale for
            each package in the book.

                  The elfutils project provides libraries and tools for ELF
                  files and DWARF data. Most utilities in this package are
                  available in other packages, but the library is needed to
                  build the Linux kernel using the default (and most

                  This package implements a portable, high level programming
                  interface to various calling conventions. Some programs may
                  not know at the time of compilation what arguments are to
                  be passed to a function. For instance, an interpreter may
                  be told at run-time about the number and types of arguments
                  used to call a given function. Libffi can be used in such
                  programs to provide a bridge from the interpreter program
                  to compiled code.

            To make things easier to follow, there are a few typographical
            conventions used throughout this book. This section contains some
            examples of the typographical format found throughout Linux From
            Scratch.
          </p>
          <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">./configure --prefix=/usr</kbd>
</pre>
          <p>
            This form of text is designed to be typed exactly as seen unless
            otherwise noted in the surrounding text. It is also used in the
            explanation sections to identify which of the commands is being
            referenced.
          </p>
          <p>
            In some cases, a logical line is extended to two or more physical
            lines with a backslash at the end of the line.
          </p>
          <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">CC="gcc -B/usr/bin/" ../binutils-2.18/configure \
  --prefix=/tools --disable-nls --disable-werror</kbd>
</pre>
          <p>
            Note that the backslash must be followed by an immediate return.
            Other whitespace characters like spaces or tab characters will
            create incorrect results.
          </p>
          <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">install-info: unknown option '--dir-file=/mnt/lfs/usr/info/dir'</code>
</pre>
          <p>
            This form of text (fixed-width text) shows screen output, usually
            as the result of commands issued. This format is also used to
            show filenames, such as <code class=
            "filename">/etc/ld.so.conf</code>.
          </p>
          <p>
            <span class="emphasis"><em>Emphasis</em></span>
          </p>
          <p>
            This form of text is used for several purposes in the book. Its
            main purpose is to emphasize important points or items.
          </p>
          <p>
            <a class="ulink" href=
            "http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/">http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/</a>
          </p>
          <p>
            This format is used for hyperlinks both within the LFS community
            and to external pages. It includes HOWTOs, download locations,
            and websites.
          </p>
          <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">cat &gt; $LFS/etc/group &lt;&lt; "EOF"
<code class="literal">root:x:0:
bin:x:1:
......</code>
EOF</kbd>
</pre>
          <p>
            This format is used when creating configuration files. The first
            command tells the system to create the file <code class=
            "filename">$LFS/etc/group</code> from whatever is typed on the
            following lines until the sequence End Of File (EOF) is
            encountered. Therefore, this entire section is generally typed as
            seen.
          </p>
          <p>
            <em class="replaceable"><code>&lt;REPLACED TEXT&gt;</code></em>
          </p>
          <p>
            This format is used to encapsulate text that is not to be typed
            as seen or for copy-and-paste operations.
          </p>
          <p>
            <em class="replaceable"><code>[OPTIONAL TEXT]</code></em>
          </p>
          <p>
            This format is used to encapsulate text that is optional.
          </p>
          <p>
            <code class="filename">passwd(5)</code>
          </p>
          <p>
            This format is used to refer to a specific manual (man) page. The
            number inside parentheses indicates a specific section inside the
            manuals. For example, <span class=
            "command"><strong>passwd</strong></span> has two man pages. Per
            LFS installation instructions, those two man pages will be
            located at <code class=
            "filename">/usr/share/man/man1/passwd.1</code> and <code class=
            "filename">/usr/share/man/man5/passwd.5</code>. When the book
            uses <code class="filename">passwd(5)</code> it is specifically
            referring to <code class=
            "filename">/usr/share/man/man5/passwd.5</code>. <span class=
            "command"><strong>man passwd</strong></span> will print the first
            man page it finds that matches <span class=
            "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">passwd</span>&rdquo;</span>,
            which will be <code class=
            "filename">/usr/share/man/man1/passwd.1</code>. For this example,
            you will need to run <span class="command"><strong>man 5
            passwd</strong></span> in order to read the specific page being
            referred to. It should be noted that most man pages do not have
            duplicate page names in different sections. Therefore,
            <span class="command"><strong>man <em class=
            "replaceable"><code>&lt;program
            name&gt;</code></em></strong></span> is generally sufficient.

              The LFS system will be built by using an already installed
              Linux distribution (such as Debian, OpenMandriva, Fedora, or
              openSUSE). This existing Linux system (the host) will be used
              as a starting point to provide necessary programs, including a
              compiler, linker, and shell, to build the new system. Select
              the <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">development</span>&rdquo;</span> option during the
              distribution installation to be able to access these tools.

            <p>
              As an alternative to installing a separate distribution onto
              your machine, you may wish to use a LiveCD from a commercial
              distribution.

              explains the installation of a number of packages that will
              form the basic development suite (or toolchain) which is used
              to build the actual system in <a class="xref" href=
              "#chapter-building-system" title=
              "Chapter&nbsp;6.&nbsp;Installing Basic System Software">Chapter&nbsp;6</a>.
              Some of these packages are needed to resolve circular
              dependencies&mdash;for example, to compile a compiler, you need
              a compiler.
            </p>

              <a class="xref" href="#chapter-temporary-tools" title=
              "Chapter&nbsp;5.&nbsp;Constructing a Temporary System">Chapter&nbsp;5</a>
              also shows you how to build a first pass of the toolchain,
              including Binutils and GCC (first pass basically means these
              two core packages will be reinstalled). The next step is to
              build Glibc, the C library. Glibc will be compiled by the
              toolchain programs built in the first pass. Then, a second pass
              of the toolchain will be built. This time, the toolchain will
              be dynamically linked against the newly built Glibc. The
              remaining <a class="xref" href="#chapter-temporary-tools"
              title="Chapter&nbsp;5.&nbsp;Constructing a Temporary System">Chapter&nbsp;5</a>
              packages are built using this second pass toolchain. When this
              is done, the LFS installation process will no longer depend on
              the host distribution, with the exception of the running
              kernel.
            </p>
            <p>
              This effort to isolate the new system from the host
              distribution may seem excessive. A full technical explanation
              as to why this is done is provided in <a class="xref" href=
              "#ch-tools-toolchaintechnotes" title=

              In <a class="xref" href="#chapter-building-system" title=
              "Chapter&nbsp;6.&nbsp;Installing Basic System Software">Chapter&nbsp;6</a>,
              the full LFS system is built. The <span class=
              "command"><strong>chroot</strong></span> (change root) program
              is used to enter a virtual environment and start a new shell
              whose root directory will be set to the LFS partition. This is
              very similar to rebooting and instructing the kernel to mount
              the LFS partition as the root partition. The system does not
              actually reboot, but instead uses <span class=
              "command"><strong>chroot</strong></span> because creating a
              bootable system requires additional work which is not necessary
              just yet. The major advantage is that <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">chrooting</span>&rdquo;</span> allows you to continue
              using the host system while LFS is being built. While waiting
              for package compilations to complete, you can continue using
              your computer as normal.
            </p>

              information on continuing the LFS experience beyond this book.
              After the steps in this book have been implemented, the
              computer will be ready to reboot into the new LFS system.
            </p>
            <p>
              This is the process in a nutshell. Detailed information on each
              step is discussed in the following chapters and package
              descriptions. Items that may seem complicated will be
              clarified, and everything will fall into place as you embark on
              the LFS adventure.

                The <code class="uri">linuxfromscratch.org</code> server
                hosts a number of mailing lists used for the development of
                the LFS project. These lists include the main development and
                support lists, among others. If the FAQ does not solve the
                problem you are having, the next step would be to search the
                mailing lists at <a class="ulink" href=

              We also have a wonderful LFS community that is willing to offer
              assistance through the mailing lists and IRC (see the <a class=

              get several support questions every day and many of them can be
              easily answered by going to the FAQ and by searching the
              mailing lists first. So, for us to offer the best assistance
              possible, you need to do some research on your own first. That
              allows us to focus on the more unusual support needs. If your

                1.5.3. Compilation Problems
              </h3>
              <p>
                Both the screen output and the contents of various files are
                useful in determining the cause of compilation problems. The
                screen output from the <span class=
                "command"><strong>configure</strong></span> script and the
                <span class="command"><strong>make</strong></span> run can be
                helpful. It is not necessary to include the entire output,
                but do include enough of the relevant information. Below is
                an example of the type of information to include from the
                screen output from <span class=
                "command"><strong>make</strong></span>:
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">gcc -DALIASPATH=\"/mnt/lfs/usr/share/locale:.\"
-DLOCALEDIR=\"/mnt/lfs/usr/share/locale\"
-DLIBDIR=\"/mnt/lfs/usr/lib\"
-DINCLUDEDIR=\"/mnt/lfs/usr/include\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.

make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                In this case, many people would just include the bottom
                section:
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">make [2]: *** [make] Error 1</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                This is not enough information to properly diagnose the
                problem because it only notes that something went wrong, not
                <span class="emphasis"><em>what</em></span> went wrong. The
                entire section, as in the example above, is what should be
                saved because it includes the command that was executed and
                the associated error message(s).

              In this chapter, the host tools needed for building LFS are
              checked and, if necessary, installed. Then a partition which
              will host the LFS system is prepared. We will create the
              partition itself, create a file system on it, and mount it.

              Your host system should have the following software with the
              minimum versions indicated. This should not be an issue for
              most modern Linux distributions. Also note that many
              distributions will place software headers into separate
              packages, often in the form of <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">&lt;package-name&gt;-devel</span>&rdquo;</span> or
              <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">&lt;package-name&gt;-dev</span>&rdquo;</span>. Be sure
              to install those if your distribution provides them.
            </p>
            <p>
              Earlier versions of the listed software packages may work, but
              have not been tested.

                  <p>
                    The reason for the kernel version requirement is that we
                    specify that version when building <span class=
                    "application">glibc</span> in Chapter&nbsp;6 at the
                    recommendation of the developers. It is also required by
                    udev.
                  </p>
                  <p>
                    If the host kernel is earlier than 3.2 you will need to
                    replace the kernel with a more up to date version. There
                    are two ways you can go about this. First, see if your
                    Linux vendor provides a 3.2 or later kernel package. If
                    so, you may wish to install it. If your vendor doesn't
                    offer an acceptable kernel package, or you would prefer
                    not to install it, you can compile a kernel yourself.
                    Instructions for compiling the kernel and configuring the
                    boot loader (assuming the host uses GRUB) are located in

              LFS is designed to be built in one session. That is, the
              instructions assume that the system will not be shut down
              during the process. That does not mean that the system has to
              be done in one sitting. The issue is that certain procedures
              have to be re-accomplished after a reboot if resuming LFS at
              different points.

              Like most other operating systems, LFS is usually installed on
              a dedicated partition. The recommended approach to building an
              LFS system is to use an available empty partition or, if you
              have enough unpartitioned space, to create one.
            </p>
            <p>
              A minimal system requires a partition of around 10 gigabytes
              (GB). This is enough to store all the source tarballs and
              compile the packages. However, if the LFS system is intended to
              be the primary Linux system, additional software will probably
              be installed which will require additional space. A 30 GB
              partition is a reasonable size to provide for growth. The LFS
              system itself will not take up this much room. A large portion
              of this requirement is to provide sufficient free temporary
              storage as well as for adding additional capabilities after LFS
              is complete. Additionally, compiling packages can require a lot
              of disk space which will be reclaimed after the package is
              installed.
            </p>
            <p>
              Because there is not always enough Random Access Memory (RAM)
              available for compilation processes, it is a good idea to use a
              small disk partition as <code class="systemitem">swap</code>
              space. This is used by the kernel to store seldom-used data and
              leave more memory available for active processes. The
              <code class="systemitem">swap</code> partition for an LFS
              system can be the same as the one used by the host system, in
              which case it is not necessary to create another one.
            </p>
            <p>
              Start a disk partitioning program such as <span class=
              "command"><strong>cfdisk</strong></span> or <span class=
              "command"><strong>fdisk</strong></span> with a command line
              option naming the hard disk on which the new partition will be
              created&mdash;for example <code class=
              "filename">/dev/sda</code> for the primary disk drive. Create a
              Linux native partition and a <code class=
              "systemitem">swap</code> partition, if needed. Please refer to
              <code class="filename">cfdisk(8)</code> or <code class=
              "filename">fdisk(8)</code> if you do not yet know how to use
              the programs.

                For experienced users, other partitioning schemes are

              this as the LFS partition. Also remember the designation of the

                2.4.1. Other Partition Issues
              </h3>
              <p>
                Requests for advice on system partitioning are often posted
                on the LFS mailing lists. This is a highly subjective topic.
                The default for most distributions is to use the entire drive
                with the exception of one small swap partition. This is not
                optimal for LFS for several reasons. It reduces flexibility,
                makes sharing of data across multiple distributions or LFS
                builds more difficult, makes backups more time consuming, and
                can waste disk space through inefficient allocation of file
                system structures.

                  A root LFS partition (not to be confused with the

                  gigabytes is a good compromise for most systems. It
                  provides enough space to build LFS and most of BLFS, but is
                  small enough so that multiple partitions can be easily
                  created for experimentation.

                  Most distributions automatically create a swap partition.
                  Generally the recommended size of the swap partition is
                  about twice the amount of physical RAM, however this is
                  rarely needed. If disk space is limited, hold the swap
                  partition to two gigabytes and monitor the amount of disk
                  swapping.
                </p>
                <p>
                  Swapping is never good. Generally you can tell if a system
                  is swapping by just listening to disk activity and
                  observing how the system reacts to commands. The first
                  reaction to swapping should be to check for an unreasonable
                  command such as trying to edit a five gigabyte file. If
                  swapping becomes a normal occurrence, the best solution is
                  to purchase more RAM for your system.

                    The Grub Bios partition must be on the drive that the

                    on a system may use different partition table types. The

                        providing a location to store BLFS source files and
                        share them across LFS builds. It can also be used as
                        a location for building BLFS packages. A reasonably
                        large partition of 30-50 gigabytes allows plenty of
                        room.

                  Any separate partition that you want automatically mounted

              Now that a blank partition has been set up, the file system can
              be created. LFS can use any file system recognized by the Linux
              kernel, but the most common types are ext3 and ext4. The choice
              of file system can be complex and depends on the
              characteristics of the files and the size of the partition. For
              example:
            </p>
            <div class="variablelist">
              <dl class="variablelist">
                <dt>
                  <span class="term">ext2</span>
                </dt>
                <dd>
                  <p>
                    is suitable for small partitions that are updated
                    infrequently such as /boot.

                  <p>
                    is an upgrade to ext2 that includes a journal to help
                    recover the partition's status in the case of an unclean
                    shutdown. It is commonly used as a general purpose file
                    system.

                    is the latest version of the ext file system family of
                    partition types. It provides several new capabilities
                    including nano-second timestamps, creation and use of
                    very large files (16 TB), and speed improvements.

              Other file systems, including FAT32, NTFS, ReiserFS, JFS, and
              XFS are useful for specialized purposes. More information about

              LFS assumes that the root file system (/) is of type ext4. To
              create an <code class="systemitem">ext4</code> file system on
              the LFS partition, run the following:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mkfs -v -t ext4 /dev/<em class=
"replaceable"><code>&lt;xxx&gt;</code></em></kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              If you are using an existing <code class=
              "systemitem">swap</code> partition, there is no need to format
              it. If a new <code class="systemitem">swap</code> partition was
              created, it will need to be initialized with this command:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mkswap /dev/<em class=
"replaceable"><code>&lt;yyy&gt;</code></em></kbd>

            <p>
              Replace <em class="replaceable"><code>&lt;yyy&gt;</code></em>

              Throughout this book, the environment variable <code class=
              "envar">LFS</code> will be used several times. You should
              ensure that this variable is always defined throughout the LFS
              build process. It should be set to the name of the directory
              where you will be building your LFS system - we will use
              <code class="filename">/mnt/lfs</code> as an example, but the
              directory choice is up to you. If you are building LFS on a
              separate partition, this directory will be the mount point for
              the partition. Choose a directory location and set the variable
              with the following command:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">export LFS=<em class=
"replaceable"><code>/mnt/lfs</code></em></kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Having this variable set is beneficial in that commands such as
              <span class="command"><strong>mkdir -v
              $LFS/tools</strong></span> can be typed literally. The shell
              will automatically replace <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">$LFS</span>&rdquo;</span>
              with <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">/mnt/lfs</span>&rdquo;</span> (or whatever the variable
              was set to) when it processes the command line.
            </p>

              <h3>
                Caution
              </h3>
              <p>
                Do not forget to check that <code class="envar">LFS</code> is
                set whenever you leave and reenter the current working
                environment (such as when doing a <span class=
                "command"><strong>su</strong></span> to <code class=
                "systemitem">root</code> or another user). Check that the
                <code class="envar">LFS</code> variable is set up properly
                with:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">echo $LFS</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Make sure the output shows the path to your LFS system's
                build location, which is <code class=
                "filename">/mnt/lfs</code> if the provided example was
                followed. If the output is incorrect, use the command given
                earlier on this page to set <code class="envar">$LFS</code>
                to the correct directory name.
              </p>

                One way to ensure that the <code class="envar">LFS</code>
                variable is always set is to edit the <code class=
                "filename">.bash_profile</code> file in both your personal
                home directory and in <code class=
                "filename">/root/.bash_profile</code> and enter the export
                command above. In addition, the shell specified in the
                <code class="filename">/etc/passwd</code> file for all users
                that need the <code class="envar">LFS</code> variable needs
                to be bash to ensure that the <code class=
                "filename">/root/.bash_profile</code> file is incorporated as
                a part of the login process.
              </p>
              <p>
                Another consideration is the method that is used to log into
                the host system. If logging in through a graphical display
                manager, the user's <code class=
                "filename">.bash_profile</code> is not normally used when a
                virtual terminal is started. In this case, add the export
                command to the <code class="filename">.bashrc</code> file for
                the user and root. In addition, some distributions have
                instructions to not run the <code class=
                "filename">.bashrc</code> instructions in a non-interactive
                bash invocation. Be sure to add the export command before the
                test for non-interactive use.

              Now that a file system has been created, the partition needs to
              be made accessible. In order to do this, the partition needs to
              be mounted at a chosen mount point. For the purposes of this
              book, it is assumed that the file system is mounted under the
              directory specified by the <code class="envar">LFS</code>
              environment variable as described in the previous section.
            </p>
            <p>
              Create the mount point and mount the LFS file system by
              running:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mkdir -pv $LFS
mount -v -t ext4 /dev/<em class=
"replaceable"><code>&lt;xxx&gt;</code></em> $LFS</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Replace <em class="replaceable"><code>&lt;xxx&gt;</code></em>
              with the designation of the LFS partition.
            </p>
            <p>
              If using multiple partitions for LFS (e.g., one for
              <code class="filename">/</code> and another for <code class=
              "filename">/usr</code>), mount them using:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mkdir -pv $LFS
mount -v -t ext4 /dev/<em class=
"replaceable"><code>&lt;xxx&gt;</code></em> $LFS
mkdir -v $LFS/usr
mount -v -t ext4 /dev/<em class=
"replaceable"><code>&lt;yyy&gt;</code></em> $LFS/usr</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Replace <em class="replaceable"><code>&lt;xxx&gt;</code></em>
              and <em class="replaceable"><code>&lt;yyy&gt;</code></em> with
              the appropriate partition names.
            </p>
            <p>
              Ensure that this new partition is not mounted with permissions
              that are too restrictive (such as the <code class=
              "option">nosuid</code> or <code class="option">nodev</code>
              options). Run the <span class=
              "command"><strong>mount</strong></span> command without any
              parameters to see what options are set for the mounted LFS
              partition. If <code class="option">nosuid</code> and/or
              <code class="option">nodev</code> are set, the partition will
              need to be remounted.

                The above instructions assume that you will not be restarting

                partition each time you restart the build process or modify
                your host system's /etc/fstab file to automatically remount
                it upon boot. For example:

              <p>
                If you use additional optional partitions, be sure to add

              This chapter includes a list of packages that need to be
              downloaded in order to build a basic Linux system. The listed
              version numbers correspond to versions of the software that are
              known to work, and this book is based on their use. We highly
              recommend against using newer versions because the build
              commands for one version may not work with a newer version. The
              newest package versions may also have problems that require
              work-arounds. These work-arounds will be developed and
              stabilized in the development version of the book.

              Downloaded packages and patches will need to be stored
              somewhere that is conveniently available throughout the entire
              build. A working directory is also required to unpack the
              sources and build them. <code class=
              "filename">$LFS/sources</code> can be used both as the place to
              store the tarballs and patches and as a working directory. By
              using this directory, the required elements will be located on
              the LFS partition and will be available during all stages of
              the building process.
            </p>
            <p>
              To create this directory, execute the following command, as
              user <code class="systemitem">root</code>, before starting the
              download session:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mkdir -v $LFS/sources</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Make this directory writable and sticky. <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">Sticky</span>&rdquo;</span>
              means that even if multiple users have write permission on a
              directory, only the owner of a file can delete the file within
              a sticky directory. The following command will enable the write
              and sticky modes:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">chmod -v a+wt $LFS/sources</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              An easy way to download all of the packages and patches is by
              using <a class="ulink" href="wget-list">wget-list</a> as an
              input to <span class="command"><strong>wget</strong></span>.
              For example:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class=
"command">wget --input-file=wget-list --continue --directory-prefix=$LFS/sources</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Additionally, starting with LFS-7.0, there is a separate file,
              <a class="ulink" href="md5sums">md5sums</a>, which can be
              used to verify that all the correct packages are available
              before proceeding. Place that file in <code class=
              "filename">$LFS/sources</code> and run:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">pushd $LFS/sources
md5sum -c md5sums
popd</kbd>

                      <p>
                        The Linux kernel is updated relatively often, many
                        times due to discoveries of security vulnerabilities.
                        The latest available 5.5.x kernel version should be
                        used, unless the errata page says otherwise.
                      </p>
                      <p>
                        For users with limited speed or expensive bandwidth
                        who wish to update the Linux kernel, a baseline
                        version of the package and patches can be downloaded
                        separately. This may save some time or cost for a
                        subsequent patch level upgrade within a minor
                        release.

              In addition to the packages, several patches are also required.
              These patches correct any mistakes in the packages that should
              be fixed by the maintainer. The patches also make small
              modifications to make the packages easier to work with. The
              following patches will be needed to build an LFS system:

              In addition to the above required patches, there exist a number
              of optional patches created by the LFS community. These
              optional patches solve minor problems or enable functionality
              that is not enabled by default. Feel free to peruse the patches

              In this chapter, we will perform a few additional tasks to
              prepare for building the temporary system. We will create a
              directory in <code class="filename">$LFS</code> for the
              installation of the temporary tools, add an unprivileged user
              to reduce risk, and create an appropriate build environment for
              that user. We will also explain the unit of time we use to
              measure how long LFS packages take to build, or <span class=

              and give some information about package test suites.

              will be installed under <code class=
              "filename">$LFS/tools</code> to keep them separate from the

              "Chapter&nbsp;6.&nbsp;Installing Basic System Software">Chapter&nbsp;6</a>.
              The programs compiled here are temporary tools and will not be
              a part of the final LFS system. By keeping these programs in a
              separate directory, they can easily be discarded later after
              their use. This also prevents these programs from ending up in
              the host production directories (easy to do by accident in
              <a class="xref" href="#chapter-temporary-tools" title=
              "Chapter&nbsp;5.&nbsp;Constructing a Temporary System">Chapter&nbsp;5</a>).
            </p>
            <p>
              Create the required directory by running the following as
              <code class="systemitem">root</code>:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mkdir -v $LFS/tools</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              The next step is to create a <code class=
              "filename">/tools</code> symlink on the host system. This will
              point to the newly-created directory on the LFS partition. Run
              this command as <code class="systemitem">root</code> as well:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">ln -sv $LFS/tools /</kbd>
</pre>
            <div class="admon note">
              <h3>
                Note
              </h3>
              <p>
                The above command is correct. The <span class=
                "command"><strong>ln</strong></span> command has a few
                syntactic variations, so be sure to check <span class=
                "command"><strong>info coreutils ln</strong></span> and
                <code class="filename">ln(1)</code> before reporting what you
                may think is an error.

            </div>
            <p>
              The created symlink enables the toolchain to be compiled so
              that it always refers to <code class="filename">/tools</code>,
              meaning that the compiler, assembler, and linker will work both
              in Chapter&nbsp;5 (when we are still using some tools from the
              host) and in the next (when we are <span class=

              When logged in as user <code class="systemitem">root</code>,
              making a single mistake can damage or destroy a system.
              Therefore, we recommend building the packages in the next
              chapter as an unprivileged user. You could use your own user
              name, but to make it easier to set up a clean working
              environment, create a new user called <code class=
              "systemitem">lfs</code> as a member of a new group (also named
              <code class="systemitem">lfs</code>) and use this user during
              the installation process. As <code class=
              "systemitem">root</code>, issue the following commands to add
              the new user:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">

            <p>
              When logged on as user <code class="systemitem">lfs</code>, the

              <code class="filename">/etc/profile</code> of the host
              (probably containing some settings and environment variables)
              and then <code class="filename">.bash_profile</code>. The
              <span class="command"><strong>exec env
              -i.../bin/bash</strong></span> command in the <code class=
              "filename">.bash_profile</code> file replaces the running shell
              with a new one with a completely empty environment, except for
              the <code class="envar">HOME</code>, <code class=
              "envar">TERM</code>, and <code class="envar">PS1</code>
              variables. This ensures that no unwanted and potentially
              hazardous environment variables from the host system leak into
              the build environment. The technique used here achieves the
              goal of ensuring a clean environment.
            </p>
            <p>
              The new instance of the shell is a <span class=
              "emphasis"><em>non-login</em></span> shell, which does not read
              the <code class="filename">/etc/profile</code> or <code class=

            <p>
              The <span class="command"><strong>set +h</strong></span>
              command turns off <span class=
              "command"><strong>bash</strong></span>'s hash function. Hashing
              is ordinarily a useful feature&mdash;<span class=
              "command"><strong>bash</strong></span> uses a hash table to
              remember the full path of executable files to avoid searching
              the <code class="envar">PATH</code> time and again to find the
              same executable. However, the new tools should be used as soon
              as they are installed. By switching off the hash function, the
              shell will always search the <code class="envar">PATH</code>
              when a program is to be run. As such, the shell will find the
              newly compiled tools in <code class=
              "filename">$LFS/tools</code> as soon as they are available
              without remembering a previous version of the same program in a
              different location.
            </p>
            <p>
              Setting the user file-creation mask (umask) to 022 ensures that
              newly created files and directories are only writable by their
              owner, but are readable and executable by anyone (assuming
              default modes are used by the <code class=
              "function">open(2)</code> system call, new files will end up
              with permission mode 644 and directories with mode 755).
            </p>
            <p>
              The <code class="envar">LFS</code> variable should be set to
              the chosen mount point.
            </p>
            <p>
              The <code class="envar">LC_ALL</code> variable controls the
              localization of certain programs, making their messages follow
              the conventions of a specified country. Setting <code class=
              "envar">LC_ALL</code> to <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">POSIX</span>&rdquo;</span>
              or <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">C</span>&rdquo;</span> (the two are equivalent) ensures
              that everything will work as expected in the chroot
              environment.
            </p>
            <p>
              The <code class="envar">LFS_TGT</code> variable sets a
              non-default, but compatible machine description for use when
              building our cross compiler and linker and when cross compiling
              our temporary toolchain. More information is contained in

              By putting <code class="filename">/tools/bin</code> ahead of

              are picked up by the shell immediately after their
              installation. This, combined with turning off hashing, limits
              the risk that old programs are used from the host when the same
              programs are available in the chapter 5 environment.

              Many people would like to know beforehand approximately how
              long it takes to compile and install each package. Because
              Linux From Scratch can be built on many different systems, it
              is impossible to provide accurate time estimates. The biggest
              package (Glibc) will take approximately 20 minutes on the
              fastest systems, but could take up to three days on slower
              systems! Instead of providing actual times, the Standard Build
              Unit (SBU) measure will be used instead.
            </p>
            <p>
              The SBU measure works as follows. The first package to be
              compiled from this book is Binutils in <a class="xref" href=
              "#chapter-temporary-tools" title=
              "Chapter&nbsp;5.&nbsp;Constructing a Temporary System">Chapter&nbsp;5</a>.
              The time it takes to compile this package is what will be
              referred to as the Standard Build Unit or SBU. All other
              compile times will be expressed relative to this time.
            </p>
            <p>
              For example, consider a package whose compilation time is 4.5
              SBUs. This means that if a system took 10 minutes to compile
              and install the first pass of Binutils, it will take
              <span class="emphasis"><em>approximately</em></span> 45 minutes
              to build this example package. Fortunately, most build times
              are shorter than the one for Binutils.
            </p>
            <p>
              In general, SBUs are not entirely accurate because they depend
              on many factors, including the host system's version of GCC.
              They are provided here to give an estimate of how long it might
              take to install a package, but the numbers can vary by as much
              as dozens of minutes in some cases.
            </p>
            <div class="admon note">

              </h3>
              <p>
                For many modern systems with multiple processors (or cores)
                the compilation time for a package can be reduced by
                performing a "parallel make" by either setting an environment
                variable or telling the <span class=
                "command"><strong>make</strong></span> program how many
                processors are available. For instance, a Core2Duo can
                support two simultaneous processes with:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">export MAKEFLAGS='-j 2'</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                or just building with:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make -j2</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                When multiple processors are used in this way, the SBU units
                in the book will vary even more than they normally would. In
                some cases, the make step will simply fail. Analyzing the
                output of the build process will also be more difficult
                because the lines of different processes will be interleaved.
                If you run into a problem with a build step, revert back to a
                single processor build to properly analyze the error
                messages.

              Most packages provide a test suite. Running the test suite for
              a newly built package is a good idea because it can provide a
              <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">sanity
              check</span>&rdquo;</span> indicating that everything compiled
              correctly. A test suite that passes its set of checks usually
              proves that the package is functioning as the developer
              intended. It does not, however, guarantee that the package is
              totally bug free.
            </p>
            <p>
              Some test suites are more important than others. For example,
              the test suites for the core toolchain packages&mdash;GCC,
              Binutils, and Glibc&mdash;are of the utmost importance due to
              their central role in a properly functioning system. The test
              suites for GCC and Glibc can take a very long time to complete,
              especially on slower hardware, but are strongly recommended.

              A common issue with running the test suites for Binutils and
              GCC is running out of pseudo terminals (PTYs). This can result
              in a high number of failing tests. This may happen for several
              reasons, but the most likely cause is that the host system does
              not have the <code class="systemitem">devpts</code> file system
              set up correctly. This issue is discussed in greater detail at

              Sometimes package test suites will fail, but for reasons which

              This chapter shows how to build a minimal Linux system. This
              system will contain just enough tools to start constructing the
              final LFS system in <a class="xref" href=
              "#chapter-building-system" title=
              "Chapter&nbsp;6.&nbsp;Installing Basic System Software">Chapter&nbsp;6</a>
              and allow a working environment with more user convenience than
              a minimum environment would.
            </p>
            <p>
              There are two steps in building this minimal system. The first
              step is to build a new and host-independent toolchain
              (compiler, assembler, linker, libraries, and a few useful
              utilities). The second step uses this toolchain to build the
              other essential tools.
            </p>
            <p>
              The files compiled in this chapter will be installed under the
              <code class="filename">$LFS/tools</code> directory to keep them
              separate from the files installed in the next chapter and the
              host production directories. Since the packages compiled here
              are temporary, we do not want them to pollute the soon-to-be
              LFS system.

              This section explains some of the rationale and technical
              details behind the overall build method. It is not essential to
              immediately understand everything in this section. Most of this
              information will be clearer after performing an actual build.

              The overall goal of <a class="xref" href=

              "Chapter&nbsp;5.&nbsp;Constructing a Temporary System">Chapter&nbsp;5</a>
              is to produce a temporary area that contains a known-good set
              of tools that can be isolated from the host system. By using
              <span class="command"><strong>chroot</strong></span>, the
              commands in the remaining chapters will be contained within
              that environment, ensuring a clean, trouble-free build of the
              target LFS system. The build process has been designed to
              minimize the risks for new readers and to provide the most
              educational value at the same time.

                Before continuing, be aware of the name of the working
                platform, often referred to as the target triplet. A simple
                way to determine the name of the target triplet is to run the
                <span class="command"><strong>config.guess</strong></span>
                script that comes with the source for many packages. Unpack
                the Binutils sources and run the script: <strong class=
                "userinput"><code>./config.guess</code></strong> and note the
                output. For example, for a 32-bit Intel processor the output
                will be <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>i686-pc-linux-gnu</em></span>. On a 64-bit
                system it will be <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>x86_64-pc-linux-gnu</em></span>.
              </p>
              <p>
                Also be aware of the name of the platform's dynamic linker,
                often referred to as the dynamic loader (not to be confused
                with the standard linker <span class=
                "command"><strong>ld</strong></span> that is part of
                Binutils). The dynamic linker provided by Glibc finds and
                loads the shared libraries needed by a program, prepares the
                program to run, and then runs it. The name of the dynamic
                linker for a 32-bit Intel machine will be <code class=
                "filename">ld-linux.so.2</code> (<code class=
                "filename">ld-linux-x86-64.so.2</code> for 64-bit systems). A
                sure-fire way to determine the name of the dynamic linker is
                to inspect a random binary from the host system by running:
                <strong class="userinput"><code>readelf -l &lt;name of
                binary&gt; | grep interpreter</code></strong> and noting the
                output. The authoritative reference covering all platforms is
                in the <code class="filename">shlib-versions</code> file in
                the root of the Glibc source tree.

                    <code class="envar">LFS_TGT</code> variable, ensures that
                    the first build of Binutils and GCC produces a compatible
                    cross-linker and cross-compiler. Instead of producing
                    binaries for another architecture, the cross-linker and
                    cross-compiler will produce binaries compatible with the
                    current hardware.

                    The temporary libraries are cross-compiled. Because a
                    cross-compiler by its nature cannot rely on anything from
                    its host system, this method removes potential
                    contamination of the target system by lessening the
                    chance of headers or libraries from the host being
                    incorporated into the new tools. Cross-compilation also
                    allows for the possibility of building both 32-bit and

              Binutils is installed first because the <span class=
              "command"><strong>configure</strong></span> runs of both GCC
              and Glibc perform various feature tests on the assembler and
              linker to determine which software features to enable or
              disable. This is more important than one might first realize.
              An incorrectly configured GCC or Glibc can result in a subtly
              broken toolchain, where the impact of such breakage might not
              show up until near the end of the build of an entire
              distribution. A test suite failure will usually highlight this
              error before too much additional work is performed.
            </p>
            <p>
              Binutils installs its assembler and linker in two locations,
              <code class="filename">/tools/bin</code> and <code class=
              "filename">/tools/$LFS_TGT/bin</code>. The tools in one
              location are hard linked to the other. An important facet of
              the linker is its library search order. Detailed information
              can be obtained from <span class=
              "command"><strong>ld</strong></span> by passing it the
              <em class="parameter"><code>--verbose</code></em> flag. For
              example, an <strong class="userinput"><code>ld --verbose | grep
              SEARCH</code></strong> will illustrate the current search paths
              and their order. It shows which files are linked by
              <span class="command"><strong>ld</strong></span> by compiling a
              dummy program and passing the <em class=
              "parameter"><code>--verbose</code></em> switch to the linker.
              For example, <strong class="userinput"><code>gcc dummy.c
              -Wl,--verbose 2&gt;&amp;1 | grep succeeded</code></strong> will
              show all the files successfully opened during the linking.
            </p>
            <p>
              The next package installed is GCC. An example of what can be
              seen during its run of <span class=
              "command"><strong>configure</strong></span> is:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">checking what assembler to use... /tools/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/as
checking what linker to use... /tools/i686-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ld</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              This is important for the reasons mentioned above. It also
              demonstrates that GCC's configure script does not search the
              PATH directories to find which tools to use. However, during
              the actual operation of <span class=
              "command"><strong>gcc</strong></span> itself, the same search
              paths are not necessarily used. To find out which standard
              linker <span class="command"><strong>gcc</strong></span> will
              use, run: <strong class="userinput"><code>gcc
              -print-prog-name=ld</code></strong>.
            </p>
            <p>
              Detailed information can be obtained from <span class=
              "command"><strong>gcc</strong></span> by passing it the
              <em class="parameter"><code>-v</code></em> command line option
              while compiling a dummy program. For example, <strong class=
              "userinput"><code>gcc -v dummy.c</code></strong> will show
              detailed information about the preprocessor, compilation, and
              assembly stages, including <span class=
              "command"><strong>gcc</strong></span>'s included search paths
              and their order.
            </p>
            <p>
              Next installed are sanitized Linux API headers. These allow the
              standard C library (Glibc) to interface with features that the
              Linux kernel will provide.
            </p>
            <p>
              The next package installed is Glibc. The most important
              considerations for building Glibc are the compiler, binary
              tools, and kernel headers. The compiler is generally not an
              issue since Glibc will always use the compiler relating to the
              <em class="parameter"><code>--host</code></em> parameter passed
              to its configure script; e.g. in our case, the compiler will be
              <span class=
              "command"><strong>i686-lfs-linux-gnu-gcc</strong></span>. The
              binary tools and kernel headers can be a bit more complicated.
              Therefore, take no risks and use the available configure
              switches to enforce the correct selections. After the run of
              <span class="command"><strong>configure</strong></span>, check
              the contents of the <code class="filename">config.make</code>
              file in the <code class="filename">glibc-build</code> directory
              for all important details. Note the use of <em class=
              "parameter"><code>CC="i686-lfs-gnu-gcc"</code></em> to control
              which binary tools are used and the use of the <em class=
              "parameter"><code>-nostdinc</code></em> and <em class=
              "parameter"><code>-isystem</code></em> flags to control the
              compiler's include search path. These items highlight an
              important aspect of the Glibc package&mdash;it is very
              self-sufficient in terms of its build machinery and generally
              does not rely on toolchain defaults.
            </p>
            <p>
              During the second pass of Binutils, we are able to utilize the
              <em class="parameter"><code>--with-lib-path</code></em>
              configure switch to control <span class=
              "command"><strong>ld</strong></span>'s library search path.
            </p>
            <p>
              For the second pass of GCC, its sources also need to be
              modified to tell GCC to use the new dynamic linker. Failure to
              do so will result in the GCC programs themselves having the
              name of the dynamic linker from the host system's <code class=
              "filename">/lib</code> directory embedded into them, which
              would defeat the goal of getting away from the host. From this
              point onwards, the core toolchain is self-contained and
              self-hosted. The remainder of the <a class="xref" href=
              "#chapter-temporary-tools" title=
              "Chapter&nbsp;5.&nbsp;Constructing a Temporary System">Chapter&nbsp;5</a>
              packages all build against the new Glibc in <code class=

              "Chapter&nbsp;6.&nbsp;Installing Basic System Software">Chapter&nbsp;6</a>,
              the first major package to be installed is Glibc, due to its
              self-sufficient nature mentioned above. Once this Glibc is
              installed into <code class="filename">/usr</code>, we will
              perform a quick changeover of the toolchain defaults, and then
              proceed in building the rest of the target LFS system.

              When building packages there are several assumptions made
              within the instructions:
            </p>
            <div class="itemizedlist">
              <ul>
                <li class="listitem">
                  <p>
                    Several of the packages are patched before compilation,
                    but only when the patch is needed to circumvent a
                    problem. A patch is often needed in both this and the
                    next chapter, but sometimes in only one or the other.
                    Therefore, do not be concerned if instructions for a
                    downloaded patch seem to be missing. Warning messages
                    about <span class="emphasis"><em>offset</em></span> or
                    <span class="emphasis"><em>fuzz</em></span> may also be
                    encountered when applying a patch. Do not worry about
                    these warnings, as the patch was still successfully
                    applied.

                    During the compilation of most packages, there will be
                    several warnings that scroll by on the screen. These are
                    normal and can safely be ignored. These warnings are as
                    they appear&mdash;warnings about deprecated, but not
                    invalid, use of the C or C++ syntax. C standards change
                    fairly often, and some packages still use the older
                    standard. This is not a problem, but does prompt the
                    warning.

                  Go back and re-read the notes in the previous section.
                  Understanding the notes labeled important will save you a

                </p>
              </div>
              <p>
                It is important that Binutils be the first package compiled
                because both Glibc and GCC perform various tests on the
                available linker and assembler to determine which of their
                own features to enable.
              </p>
              <p>
                The Binutils documentation recommends building Binutils in a
                dedicated build directory:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mkdir -v build
cd       build</kbd>
</pre>
              <div class="admon note">
                <h3>
                  Note
                </h3>
                <p>
                  In order for the SBU values listed in the rest of the book
                  to be of any use, measure the time it takes to build this
                  package from the configuration, up to and including the
                  first install. To achieve this easily, wrap the commands in
                  a <span class="command"><strong>time</strong></span>
                  command like this: <strong class="userinput"><code>time {
                  ./configure ... &amp;&amp; ... &amp;&amp; make install;
                  }</code></strong>.
                </p>
              </div>
              <div class="admon note">
                <h3>

                <p>
                  The approximate build SBU values and required disk space in
                  Chapter&nbsp;5 does not include test suite data.

             --disable-werror</kbd>
</pre>
              <div class="variablelist">
                <p class="title">
                  <strong>The meaning of the configure options:</strong>

                  <dd>
                    <p>
                      This tells the configure script to prepare to install
                      the Binutils programs in the <code class=
                      "filename">/tools</code> directory.
                    </p>
                  </dd>

                    <p>

                      look in $LFS for the target system libraries as needed.

                Compilation is now complete. Ordinarily we would now run the
                test suite, but at this early stage the test suite framework
                (Tcl, Expect, and DejaGNU) is not yet in place. The benefits
                of running the tests at this point are minimal since the
                programs from this first pass will soon be replaced by those
                from the second.

              </h3>
              <p>
                GCC now requires the GMP, MPFR and MPC packages. As these
                packages may not be included in your host distribution, they
                will be built with GCC. Unpack each package into the GCC
                source directory and rename the resulting directories so the
                GCC build procedures will automatically use them:
              </p>

                  There are frequent misunderstandings about this chapter.
                  The procedures are the same as every other chapter as

                  proceed with the instructions below.

                In case the above seems hard to follow, let's break it down a
                bit. First we copy the files <code class=
                "filename">gcc/config/linux.h</code>, <code class=
                "filename">gcc/config/i386/linux.h</code>, and <code class=
                "filename">gcc/config/i368/linux64.h</code> to a file of the
                same name but with an added suffix of <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">.orig</span>&rdquo;</span>. Then the first sed
                expression prepends <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">/tools</span>&rdquo;</span> to every instance of
                <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">/lib/ld</span>&rdquo;</span>, <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">/lib64/ld</span>&rdquo;</span> or <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">/lib32/ld</span>&rdquo;</span>, while the second one
                replaces hard-coded instances of <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">/usr</span>&rdquo;</span>.
                Next, we add our define statements which alter the default
                startfile prefix to the end of the file. Note that the
                trailing <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">/</span>&rdquo;</span> in <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">/tools/lib/</span>&rdquo;</span> is required.
                Finally, we use <span class=
                "command"><strong>touch</strong></span> to update the
                timestamp on the copied files. When used in conjunction with
                <span class="command"><strong>cp -u</strong></span>, this
                prevents unexpected changes to the original files in case the
                commands are inadvertently run twice.
              </p>
              <p>
                Finally, on x86_64 hosts, set the default directory name for
                64-bit libraries to <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">lib</span>&rdquo;</span>:

                      When creating a complete cross-compiler, GCC requires

                      our purposes these headers will not be needed. This
                      switch prevents GCC from looking for them.

                      The local prefix is the location in the system that GCC

                      Setting this to <code class="filename">/tools</code>

                      normally translate to <code class=
                      "filename">$LFS/usr/include</code>. However the headers
                      that will be installed in the next two sections will go
                      to <code class="filename">$LFS/tools/include</code>.
                      This switch ensures that gcc will find them correctly.
                      In the second pass of GCC, this same switch will ensure
                      that no headers from the host system are found.

                5.6.1. Installation of Linux API Headers
              </h3>
              <p>
                The Linux kernel needs to expose an Application Programming
                Interface (API) for the system's C library (Glibc in LFS) to
                use. This is done by way of sanitizing various C header files
                that are shipped in the Linux kernel source tarball.
              </p>
              <p>
                Make sure there are no stale files embedded in the package:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make mrproper</kbd>

              <p>
                Now extract the user-visible kernel headers from the source.
                The recommended make target <span class=

                because it requires <span class="application">rsync</span>,
                which may not be available. The headers are first placed in
                <code class="filename">./usr</code>, then copied to the
                needed location.

              <p>
                The Glibc documentation recommends building Glibc in a
                dedicated build directory:
              </p>

                      The combined effect of these switches is that Glibc's
                      build system configures itself to cross-compile, using
                      the cross-linker and cross-compiler in <code class=
                      "filename">/tools</code>.

                    <p>
                      This tells Glibc to compile the library with support
                      for 3.2 and later Linux kernels. Workarounds for older
                      kernels are not enabled.

                    <p>
                      This tells Glibc to compile itself against the headers
                      recently installed to the tools directory, so that it
                      knows exactly what features the kernel has and can
                      optimize itself accordingly.

                5.10.1. Installation of GCC
              </h3>
              <p>
                Our first build of GCC has installed a couple of internal
                system headers. Normally one of them, <code class=
                "filename">limits.h</code>, will in turn include the
                corresponding system <code class="filename">limits.h</code>
                header, in this case, <code class=
                "filename">/tools/include/limits.h</code>. However, at the
                time of the first build of gcc <code class=
                "filename">/tools/include/limits.h</code> did not exist, so
                the internal header that GCC installed is a partial,
                self-contained file and does not include the extended
                features of the system header. This was adequate for building
                the temporary libc, but this build of GCC now requires the
                full internal header. Create a full version of the internal
                header using a command that is identical to what the GCC
                build system does in normal circumstances:
              </p>

  `dirname $($LFS_TGT-gcc -print-libgcc-file-name)`/include-fixed/limits.h</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Once again, change the location of GCC's default dynamic
                linker to use the one installed in <code class=
                "filename">/tools</code>.

              <p>
                As in the first build of GCC it requires the GMP, MPFR and
                MPC packages. Unpack the tarballs and move them into the
                required directory names:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">

              <p>
                Now fix a problem introduced by Glibc-2.31:

              <p>
                Create a separate build directory again:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">

                      For native builds of GCC, the default is to do a
                      "bootstrap" build. This does not just compile GCC, but
                      compiles it several times. It uses the programs
                      compiled in a first round to compile itself a second
                      time, and then again a third time. The second and third
                      iterations are compared to make sure it can reproduce
                      itself flawlessly. This also implies that it was
                      compiled correctly. However, the LFS build method
                      should provide a solid compiler without the need to
                      bootstrap each time.

                As a finishing touch, create a symlink. Many programs and
                scripts run <span class="command"><strong>cc</strong></span>
                instead of <span class="command"><strong>gcc</strong></span>,
                which is used to keep programs generic and therefore usable
                on all kinds of UNIX systems where the GNU C compiler is not
                always installed. Running <span class=
                "command"><strong>cc</strong></span> leaves the system
                administrator free to decide which C compiler to install:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">ln -sv gcc /tools/bin/cc</kbd>

                  Caution
                </h3>
                <p>
                  At this point, it is imperative to stop and ensure that the
                  basic functions (compiling and linking) of the new
                  toolchain are working as expected. To perform a sanity
                  check, run the following commands:
                </p>
                <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">echo 'int main(){}' &gt; dummy.c
cc dummy.c
readelf -l a.out | grep ': /tools'</kbd>
</pre>
                <p>
                  If everything is working correctly, there should be no
                  errors, and the output of the last command will be of the
                  form:
                </p>
                <pre class="screen">

                <p>
                  Note that the dynamic linker will be
                  /tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2 for 32-bit machines.
                </p>
                <p>
                  If the output is not shown as above or there was no output
                  at all, then something is wrong. Investigate and retrace
                  the steps to find out where the problem is and correct it.
                  This issue must be resolved before continuing on. First,
                  perform the sanity check again, using <span class=
                  "command"><strong>gcc</strong></span> instead of
                  <span class="command"><strong>cc</strong></span>. If this
                  works, then the <code class="filename">/tools/bin/cc</code>
                  symlink is missing. Install the symlink as per above. Next,
                  ensure that the <code class="envar">PATH</code> is correct.
                  This can be checked by running <span class=
                  "command"><strong>echo $PATH</strong></span> and verifying
                  that <code class="filename">/tools/bin</code> is at the
                  head of the list. If the <code class="envar">PATH</code> is
                  wrong it could mean that you are not logged in as user
                  <code class="systemitem">lfs</code> or that something went
                  wrong back in <a class="xref" href=

                This package and the next two (Expect and DejaGNU) are
                installed to support running the test suites for GCC and
                Binutils and other packages. Installing three packages for
                testing purposes may seem excessive, but it is very
                reassuring, if not essential, to know that the most important
                tools are working properly. Even if the test suites are not
                run in this chapter (they are not mandatory), these packages
                are required to run the test suites in <a class="xref" href=

                needed to run the LFS tests. For the full package, see the
                <a class="ulink" href=
                "http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/9.1/general/tcl.html">
                BLFS Tcl procedures</a>.
              </p>
              <p>
                Prepare Tcl for compilation:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">cd unix
./configure --prefix=/tools</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Build the package:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Compilation is now complete. As discussed earlier, running
                the test suite is not mandatory for the temporary tools here
                in this chapter. To run the Tcl test suite anyway, issue the
                following command:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">TZ=UTC make test</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                The Tcl test suite may experience failures under certain host
                conditions that are not fully understood. Therefore, test
                suite failures here are not surprising, and are not
                considered critical. The <em class=
                "parameter"><code>TZ=UTC</code></em> parameter sets the time
                zone to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), but only for the
                duration of the test suite run. This ensures that the clock
                tests are exercised correctly. Details on the <code class=
                "envar">TZ</code> environment variable are provided in

                5.12.1. Installation of Expect
              </h3>
              <p>
                First, force Expect's configure script to use <code class=
                "filename">/bin/stty</code> instead of a <code class=
                "filename">/usr/local/bin/stty</code> it may find on the host
                system. This will ensure that our test suite tools remain
                sane for the final builds of our toolchain:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">cp -v configure{,.orig}
sed 's:/usr/local/bin:/bin:' configure.orig &gt; configure</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Now prepare Expect for compilation:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">./configure --prefix=/tools       \
            --with-tcl=/tools/lib \
            --with-tclinclude=/tools/include</kbd>
</pre>
              <div class="variablelist">
                <p class="title">
                  <strong>The meaning of the configure options:</strong>
                </p>
                <dl class="variablelist">
                  <dt>
                    <span class="term"><em class=
                    "parameter"><code>--with-tcl=/tools/lib</code></em></span>
                  </dt>
                  <dd>
                    <p>
                      This ensures that the configure script finds the Tcl
                      installation in the temporary tools location instead of
                      possibly locating an existing one on the host system.
                    </p>
                  </dd>
                  <dt>
                    <span class="term"><em class=
                    "parameter"><code>--with-tclinclude=/tools/include</code></em></span>
                  </dt>
                  <dd>
                    <p>
                      This explicitly tells Expect where to find Tcl's
                      internal headers. Using this option avoids conditions
                      where <span class=
                      "command"><strong>configure</strong></span> fails
                      because it cannot automatically discover the location
                      of Tcl's headers.
                    </p>
                  </dd>
                </dl>
              </div>
              <p>
                Build the package:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Compilation is now complete. As discussed earlier, running
                the test suite is not mandatory for the temporary tools here
                in this chapter. To run the Expect test suite anyway, issue
                the following command:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make test</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Note that the Expect test suite is known to experience
                failures under certain host conditions that are not within
                our control. Therefore, test suite failures here are not
                surprising and are not considered critical.
              </p>
              <p>
                Install the package:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make SCRIPTS="" install</kbd>
</pre>
              <div class="variablelist">

                    <p>
                      This prevents installation of the supplementary Expect

                      This ensures that Ncurses does not build support for
                      the Ada compiler which may be present on the host but
                      will not be available once we enter the <span class=

                    <p>
                      This tells Ncurses to install its header files into
                      <code class="filename">/tools/include</code>, instead
                      of <code class=
                      "filename">/tools/include/ncurses</code>, to ensure
                      that other packages can find the Ncurses headers
                      successfully.

                    <p>
                      This switch causes wide-character libraries (e.g.,
                      <code class="filename">libncursesw.so.6.2</code>) to be
                      built instead of normal ones (e.g., <code class=
                      "filename">libncurses.so.6.2</code>). These
                      wide-character libraries are usable in both multibyte
                      and traditional 8-bit locales, while normal libraries
                      work properly only in 8-bit locales. Wide-character and
                      normal libraries are source-compatible, but not
                      binary-compatible.

              The steps in this section are optional, but if the LFS
              partition is rather small, it is beneficial to learn that
              unnecessary items can be removed. The executables and libraries
              built so far contain about 70 MB of unneeded debugging symbols.
              Remove those symbols with:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">strip --strip-debug /tools/lib/*
/usr/bin/strip --strip-unneeded /tools/{,s}bin/*</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              These commands will skip a number of files, reporting that it
              does not recognize their file format. Most of these are scripts
              instead of binaries. Also use the system strip command to
              include the strip binary in /tools.
            </p>
            <p>
              Take care <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> to use
              <em class="parameter"><code>--strip-unneeded</code></em> on the
              libraries. The static ones would be destroyed and the toolchain
              packages would need to be built all over again.
            </p>
            <p>
              To save more, remove the documentation:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">rm -rf /tools/{,share}/{info,man,doc}</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Remove unneeded files:

            <pre class="userinput">

                The commands in the remainder of this book must be performed
                while logged in as user <code class="systemitem">root</code>
                and no longer as user <code class="systemitem">lfs</code>.
                Also, double check that <code class="envar">$LFS</code> is
                set in <code class="systemitem">root</code>'s environment.
              </p>

            <p>
              Currently, the <code class="filename">$LFS/tools</code>
              directory is owned by the user <code class=
              "systemitem">lfs</code>, a user that exists only on the host
              system. If the <code class="filename">$LFS/tools</code>
              directory is kept as is, the files are owned by a user ID
              without a corresponding account. This is dangerous because a
              user account created later could get this same user ID and
              would own the <code class="filename">$LFS/tools</code>
              directory and all the files therein, thus exposing these files
              to possible malicious manipulation.
            </p>
            <p>
              To avoid this issue, you could add the <code class=
              "systemitem">lfs</code> user to the new LFS system later when
              creating the <code class="filename">/etc/passwd</code> file,
              taking care to assign it the same user and group IDs as on the
              host system. Better yet, change the ownership of the
              <code class="filename">$LFS/tools</code> directory to user
              <code class="systemitem">root</code> by running the following
              command:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">chown -R root:root $LFS/tools</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Although the <code class="filename">$LFS/tools</code> directory
              can be deleted once the LFS system has been finished, it can be
              retained to build additional LFS systems <span class=
              "emphasis"><em>of the same book version</em></span>. How best
              to backup <code class="filename">$LFS/tools</code> is a matter

              In this chapter, we enter the building site and start
              constructing the LFS system in earnest. That is, we chroot into
              the temporary mini Linux system, make a few final preparations,
              and then begin installing the packages.
            </p>
            <p>
              The installation of this software is straightforward. Although
              in many cases the installation instructions could be made
              shorter and more generic, we have opted to provide the full
              instructions for every package to minimize the possibilities
              for mistakes. The key to learning what makes a Linux system
              work is to know what each package is used for and why you (or
              the system) may need it.
            </p>
            <p>
              We do not recommend using optimizations. They can make a
              program run slightly faster, but they may also cause
              compilation difficulties and problems when running the program.
              If a package refuses to compile when using optimization, try to
              compile it without optimization and see if that fixes the
              problem. Even if the package does compile when using
              optimization, there is the risk it may have been compiled
              incorrectly because of the complex interactions between the
              code and build tools. Also note that the <code class=
              "option">-march</code> and <code class="option">-mtune</code>
              options using values not specified in the book have not been
              tested. This may cause problems with the toolchain packages
              (Binutils, GCC and Glibc). The small potential gains achieved
              in using compiler optimizations are often outweighed by the
              risks. First-time builders of LFS are encouraged to build
              without custom optimizations. The subsequent system will still
              run very fast and be stable at the same time.
            </p>
            <p>
              The order that packages are installed in this chapter needs to
              be strictly followed to ensure that no program accidentally
              acquires a path referring to <code class=
              "filename">/tools</code> hard-wired into it. For the same
              reason, do not compile separate packages in parallel. Compiling
              in parallel may save time (especially on dual-CPU machines),
              but it could result in a program containing a hard-wired path
              to <code class="filename">/tools</code>, which will cause the
              program to stop working when that directory is removed.
            </p>
            <p>
              Before the installation instructions, each installation page
              provides information about the package, including a concise
              description of what it contains, approximately how long it will
              take to build, and how much disk space is required during this
              building process. Following the installation instructions,
              there is a list of programs and libraries (along with brief
              descriptions of these) that the package installs.

                6.1.1. About libraries
              </h3>
              <p>
                In general, the LFS editors discourage building and
                installing static libraries. The original purpose for most
                static libraries has been made obsolete in a modern Linux
                system. In addition linking a static library into a program
                can be detrimental. If an update to the library is needed to
                remove a security problem, all programs that use the static
                library will need to be relinked to the new library. Since
                the use of static libraries is not always obvious, the
                relevant programs (and the procedures needed to do the
                linking) may not even be known.
              </p>
              <p>
                In the procedures in Chapter&nbsp;6, we remove or disable
                installation of most static libraries. Usually this is done
                by passing a <code class="option">--disable-static</code>
                option to <span class=
                "command"><strong>configure</strong></span>. In other cases,
                alternate means are needed. In a few cases, especially glibc
                and gcc, the use of static libraries remains essential to the
                general package building process.

                "filename">null</code> devices. The device nodes must be

              </h3>
              <p>
                The recommended method of populating the <code class=
                "filename">/dev</code> directory with devices is to mount a
                virtual filesystem (such as <code class=
                "systemitem">tmpfs</code>) on the <code class=
                "filename">/dev</code> directory, and allow the devices to be
                created dynamically on that virtual filesystem as they are
                detected or accessed. Device creation is generally done
                during the boot process by Udev. Since this new system does
                not yet have Udev and has not yet been booted, it is
                necessary to mount and populate <code class=
                "filename">/dev</code> manually. This is accomplished by bind
                mounting the host system's <code class="filename">/dev</code>
                directory. A bind mount is a special type of mount that
                allows you to create a mirror of a directory or mount point
                to some other location. Use the following command to achieve
                this:

              Package Management is an often requested addition to the LFS
              Book. A Package Manager allows tracking the installation of
              files making it easy to remove and upgrade packages. As well as
              the binary and library files, a package manager will handle the
              installation of configuration files. Before you begin to
              wonder, NO&mdash;this section will not talk about nor recommend
              any particular package manager. What it provides is a roundup
              of the more popular techniques and how they work. The perfect
              package manager for you may be among these techniques or may be
              a combination of two or more of these techniques. This section

                6.3.1. Upgrade Issues
              </h3>
              <p>
                A Package Manager makes it easy to upgrade to newer versions
                when they are released. Generally the instructions in the LFS
                and BLFS Book can be used to upgrade to the newer versions.
                Here are some points that you should be aware of when
                upgrading packages, especially on a running system.
              </p>

                      If Glibc needs to be upgraded to a newer version, (e.g.
                      from glibc-2.19 to glibc-2.20), it is safer to rebuild
                      LFS. Though you <span class=
                      "emphasis"><em>may</em></span> be able to rebuild all
                      the packages in their dependency order, we do not
                      recommend it.

                      If a package containing a shared library is updated,
                      and if the name of the library changes, then all the
                      packages dynamically linked to the library need to be
                      recompiled to link against the newer library. (Note
                      that there is no correlation between the package
                      version and the name of the library.) For example,
                      consider a package foo-1.2.3 that installs a shared
                      library with name <code class=
                      "filename">libfoo.so.1</code>. Say you upgrade the
                      package to a newer version foo-1.2.4 that installs a
                      shared library with name <code class=
                      "filename">libfoo.so.2</code>. In this case, all
                      packages that are dynamically linked to <code class=
                      "filename">libfoo.so.1</code> need to be recompiled to
                      link against <code class="filename">libfoo.so.2</code>.
                      Note that you should not remove the previous libraries
                      until the dependent packages are recompiled.

                Before making a decision on a package manager, do some

                  Yes, this is a package management technique. Some folks do
                  not find the need for a package manager because they know
                  the packages intimately and know what files are installed
                  by each package. Some users also do not need any package
                  management because they plan on rebuilding the entire
                  system when a package is changed.

                  This is a simplistic package management that does not need
                  any extra package to manage the installations. Each package
                  is installed in a separate directory. For example, package
                  foo-1.1 is installed in <code class=
                  "filename">/usr/pkg/foo-1.1</code> and a symlink is made
                  from <code class="filename">/usr/pkg/foo</code> to
                  <code class="filename">/usr/pkg/foo-1.1</code>. When
                  installing a new version foo-1.2, it is installed in
                  <code class="filename">/usr/pkg/foo-1.2</code> and the
                  previous symlink is replaced by a symlink to the new
                  version.

                <p>
                  Environment variables such as <code class=
                  "envar">PATH</code>, <code class=
                  "envar">LD_LIBRARY_PATH</code>, <code class=

                  and <code class="envar">CPPFLAGS</code> need to be expanded
                  to include <code class="filename">/usr/pkg/foo</code>. For
                  more than a few packages, this scheme becomes unmanageable.

                  This is a variation of the previous package management
                  technique. Each package is installed similar to the
                  previous scheme. But instead of making the symlink, each
                  file is symlinked into the <code class=
                  "filename">/usr</code> hierarchy. This removes the need to
                  expand the environment variables. Though the symlinks can
                  be created by the user to automate the creation, many
                  package managers have been written using this approach. A
                  few of the popular ones include Stow, Epkg, Graft, and
                  Depot.
                </p>
                <p>
                  The installation needs to be faked, so that the package
                  thinks that it is installed in <code class=
                  "filename">/usr</code> though in reality it is installed in
                  the <code class="filename">/usr/pkg</code> hierarchy.
                  Installing in this manner is not usually a trivial task.
                  For example, consider that you are installing a package
                  libfoo-1.1. The following instructions may not install the
                  package properly:

                <p>
                  The installation will work, but the dependent packages may
                  not link to libfoo as you would expect. If you compile a
                  package that links against libfoo, you may notice that it
                  is linked to <code class=
                  "filename">/usr/pkg/libfoo/1.1/lib/libfoo.so.1</code>
                  instead of <code class=
                  "filename">/usr/lib/libfoo.so.1</code> as you would expect.
                  The correct approach is to use the <code class=
                  "envar">DESTDIR</code> strategy to fake installation of the
                  package. This approach works as follows:
                </p>
                <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make DESTDIR=/usr/pkg/libfoo/1.1 install</kbd>
</pre>
                <p>
                  Most packages support this approach, but there are some
                  which do not. For the non-compliant packages, you may
                  either need to manually install the package, or you may
                  find that it is easier to install some problematic packages
                  into <code class="filename">/opt</code>.

                <p>
                  In this technique, a file is timestamped before the
                  installation of the package. After the installation, a
                  simple use of the <span class=
                  "command"><strong>find</strong></span> command with the
                  appropriate options can generate a log of all the files
                  installed after the timestamp file was created. A package
                  manager written with this approach is install-log.
                </p>
                <p>
                  Though this scheme has the advantage of being simple, it
                  has two drawbacks. If, during installation, the files are
                  installed with any timestamp other than the current time,
                  those files will not be tracked by the package manager.
                  Also, this scheme can only be used when one package is
                  installed at a time. The logs are not reliable if two
                  packages are being installed on two different consoles.

                  In this approach, the commands that the installation
                  scripts perform are recorded. There are two techniques that
                  one can use:
                </p>
                <p>
                  The <code class="envar">LD_PRELOAD</code> environment
                  variable can be set to point to a library to be preloaded
                  before installation. During installation, this library
                  tracks the packages that are being installed by attaching
                  itself to various executables such as <span class=
                  "command"><strong>cp</strong></span>, <span class=
                  "command"><strong>install</strong></span>, <span class=
                  "command"><strong>mv</strong></span> and tracking the
                  system calls that modify the filesystem. For this approach
                  to work, all the executables need to be dynamically linked
                  without the suid or sgid bit. Preloading the library may
                  cause some unwanted side-effects during installation.
                  Therefore, it is advised that one performs some tests to
                  ensure that the package manager does not break anything and
                  logs all the appropriate files.
                </p>
                <p>
                  The second technique is to use <span class=
                  "command"><strong>strace</strong></span>, which logs all
                  system calls made during the execution of the installation
                  scripts.

                  In this scheme, the package installation is faked into a
                  separate tree as described in the Symlink style package
                  management. After the installation, a package archive is
                  created using the installed files. This archive is then
                  used to install the package either on the local machine or
                  can even be used to install the package on other machines.
                </p>
                <p>
                  This approach is used by most of the package managers found
                  in the commercial distributions. Examples of package
                  managers that follow this approach are RPM (which,
                  incidentally, is required by the <a class="ulink" href=

                  and Gentoo's Portage system. A hint describing how to adopt
                  this style of package management for LFS systems is located

                  Creation of package files that include dependency
                  information is complex and is beyond the scope of LFS.

                  "http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/hints/list.html">Hints
                  Project</a>. In this scheme, each package is installed as a
                  separate user into the standard locations. Files belonging
                  to a package are easily identified by checking the user ID.
                  The features and shortcomings of this approach are too

                6.3.3. Deploying LFS on Multiple Systems
              </h3>
              <p>
                One of the advantages of an LFS system is that there are no
                files that depend on the position of files on a disk system.
                Cloning an LFS build to another computer with the same
                architecture as the base system is as simple as using
                <span class="command"><strong>tar</strong></span> on the LFS
                partition that contains the root directory (about 250MB
                uncompressed for a base LFS build), copying that file via
                network transfer or CD-ROM to the new system and expanding
                it. From that point, a few configuration files will have to
                be changed. Configuration files that may need to be updated
                include: <code class="filename">/etc/hosts</code>,
                <code class="filename">/etc/fstab</code>, <code class=
                "filename">/etc/passwd</code>, <code class=
                "filename">/etc/group</code>, <span class=
                "phrase"><code class="filename">/etc/shadow</code>,
                <code class="filename">/etc/ld.so.conf</code>, <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/rc.site</code>, <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/network</code>, and <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0</code>.</span>
              </p>
              <p>
                A custom kernel may need to be built for the new system
                depending on differences in system hardware and the original
                kernel configuration.

                  There have been some reports of issues when copying between
                  similar but not identical architectures. For instance, the
                  instruction set for an Intel system is not identical with
                  an AMD processor and later versions of some processors may
                  have instructions that are unavailable in earlier versions.

              It is time to enter the chroot environment to begin building

              the realm that is, at the moment, populated with only the
              temporary tools:
            </p>

<kbd class="command">chroot "$LFS" /tools/bin/env -i \
    HOME=/root                  \

    PS1='(lfs chroot) \u:\w\$ ' \
    PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/tools/bin \
    /tools/bin/bash --login +h</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              The <em class="parameter"><code>-i</code></em> option given to
              the <span class="command"><strong>env</strong></span> command
              will clear all variables of the chroot environment. After that,
              only the <code class="envar">HOME</code>, <code class=
              "envar">TERM</code>, <code class="envar">PS1</code>, and
              <code class="envar">PATH</code> variables are set again. The
              <em class="parameter"><code>TERM=$TERM</code></em> construct
              will set the <code class="envar">TERM</code> variable inside
              chroot to the same value as outside chroot. This variable is
              needed for programs like <span class=
              "command"><strong>vim</strong></span> and <span class=
              "command"><strong>less</strong></span> to operate properly. If
              other variables are needed, such as <code class=
              "envar">CFLAGS</code> or <code class="envar">CXXFLAGS</code>,
              this is a good place to set them again.
            </p>
            <p>
              From this point on, there is no need to use the <code class=
              "envar">LFS</code> variable anymore, because all work will be
              restricted to the LFS file system. This is because the Bash
              shell is told that <code class="filename">$LFS</code> is now
              the root (<code class="filename">/</code>) directory.
            </p>
            <p>
              Notice that <code class="filename">/tools/bin</code> comes last
              in the <code class="envar">PATH</code>. This means that a
              temporary tool will no longer be used once its final version is
              installed. This occurs when the shell does not <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">remember</span>&rdquo;</span> the locations of executed
              binaries&mdash;for this reason, hashing is switched off by
              passing the <em class="parameter"><code>+h</code></em> option
              to <span class="command"><strong>bash</strong></span>.
            </p>
            <p>
              Note that the <span class=
              "command"><strong>bash</strong></span> prompt will say
              <code class="computeroutput">I have no name!</code> This is
              normal because the <code class="filename">/etc/passwd</code>
              file has not been created yet.

              Directories are, by default, created with permission mode 755,
              but this is not desirable for all directories. In the commands
              above, two changes are made&mdash;one to the home directory of
              user <code class="systemitem">root</code>, and another to the
              directories for temporary files.
            </p>
            <p>
              The first mode change ensures that not just anybody can enter
              the <code class="filename">/root</code> directory&mdash;the
              same as a normal user would do with his or her home directory.
              The second mode change makes sure that any user can write to
              the <code class="filename">/tmp</code> and <code class=
              "filename">/var/tmp</code> directories, but cannot remove
              another user's files from them. The latter is prohibited by the
              so-called <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">sticky

              <p>
                The directory tree is based on the Filesystem Hierarchy
                Standard (FHS) (available at <a class="ulink" href=
                "https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/fhs.shtml">https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/fhs.shtml</a>).
                The FHS also specifies the optional existence of some
                directories such as <code class=
                "filename">/usr/local/games</code> and <code class=
                "filename">/usr/share/games</code>. We create only the
                directories that are needed. However, feel free to create
                these directories.

              Historically, Linux maintains a list of the mounted file
              systems in the file <code class="filename">/etc/mtab</code>.
              Modern kernels maintain this list internally and exposes it to
              the user via the <code class="filename">/proc</code>
              filesystem. To satisfy utilities that expect the presence of
              <code class="filename">/etc/mtab</code>, create the following

            </p>
            <p>
              Create the <code class="filename">/etc/passwd</code> file by

              The created groups are not part of any standard&mdash;they are
              groups decided on in part by the requirements of the Udev
              configuration in this chapter, and in part by common convention
              employed by a number of existing Linux distributions. In
              addition, some test suites rely on specific users or groups.
              The Linux Standard Base (LSB, available at <a class="ulink"
              href="http://www.linuxbase.org">http://www.linuxbase.org</a>)
              recommends only that, besides the group <code class=
              "systemitem">root</code> with a Group ID (GID) of 0, a group
              <code class="systemitem">bin</code> with a GID of 1 be present.
              All other group names and GIDs can be chosen freely by the
              system administrator since well-written programs do not depend
              on GID numbers, but rather use the group's name.

              Note the use of the <em class="parameter"><code>+h</code></em>

              exist. Initialize the log files and give them proper

                6.7.1. Installation of Linux API Headers
              </h3>
              <p>
                The Linux kernel needs to expose an Application Programming
                Interface (API) for the system's C library (Glibc in LFS) to
                use. This is done by way of sanitizing various C header files
                that are shipped in the Linux kernel source tarball.
              </p>
              <p>
                Make sure there are no stale files and dependencies lying
                around from previous activity:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make mrproper</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Now extract the user-visible kernel headers from the source.
                The recommended make target <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">headers_install</span>&rdquo;</span> cannot be used,
                because it requires <span class="application">rsync</span>,
                which is not available in <code class=
                "filename">/tools</code>. The headers are first placed in
                <code class="filename">./usr</code>, then some files used by
                the kernel developers are removed, then the files are copied
                to their final location.

                <p>
                  The Glibc build system is self-contained and will install
                  perfectly, even though the compiler specs file and linker
                  are still pointing to <code class="filename">/tools</code>.
                  The specs and linker cannot be adjusted before the Glibc
                  install because the Glibc autoconf tests would give false
                  results and defeat the goal of achieving a clean build.

              <p>
                Some of the Glibc programs use the non-FHS compliant
                <code class="filename">/var/db</code> directory to store
                their runtime data. Apply the following patch to make such
                programs store their runtime data in the FHS-compliant
                locations:

                  After answering a few questions about the location, the

                  <span class="emphasis"><em>America/Edmonton</em></span>).
                  There are also some other possible time zones listed in

                  <span class="emphasis"><em>Canada/Eastern</em></span> or

                  for the dynamic loader to find them. Two directories that
                  are commonly known to contain additional libraries are
                  <code class="filename">/usr/local/lib</code> and

                  If desired, the dynamic loader can also search a directory

                    Toolchain
                  </h2>
                </div>
              </div>
            </div>
            <p>
              Now that the final C libraries have been installed, it is time
              to adjust the toolchain so that it will link any newly compiled
              program against these new libraries.
            </p>
            <p>
              First, backup the <code class="filename">/tools</code> linker,
              and replace it with the adjusted linker we made in chapter 5.
              We'll also create a link to its counterpart in <code class=
              "filename">/tools/$(uname -m)-pc-linux-gnu/bin</code>:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">mv -v /tools/bin/{ld,ld-old}
mv -v /tools/$(uname -m)-pc-linux-gnu/bin/{ld,ld-old}
mv -v /tools/bin/{ld-new,ld}
ln -sv /tools/bin/ld /tools/$(uname -m)-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Next, amend the GCC specs file so that it points to the new
              dynamic linker. Simply deleting all instances of <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">/tools</span>&rdquo;</span>
              should leave us with the correct path to the dynamic linker.
              Also adjust the specs file so that GCC knows where to find the
              correct headers and Glibc start files. A <span class=
              "command"><strong>sed</strong></span> command accomplishes
              this:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class=
"command">gcc -dumpspecs | sed -e 's@/tools@@g'                   \
    -e '/\*startfile_prefix_spec:/{n;s@.*@/usr/lib/ @}' \
    -e '/\*cpp:/{n;s@$@ -isystem /usr/include@}' &gt;      \
    `dirname $(gcc --print-libgcc-file-name)`/specs</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              It is a good idea to visually inspect the specs file to verify
              the intended change was actually made.
            </p>
            <p>
              It is imperative at this point to ensure that the basic
              functions (compiling and linking) of the adjusted toolchain are
              working as expected. To do this, perform the following sanity
              checks:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">echo 'int main(){}' &gt; dummy.c
cc dummy.c -v -Wl,--verbose &amp;&gt; dummy.log
readelf -l a.out | grep ': /lib'</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              There should be no errors, and the output of the last command
              will be (allowing for platform-specific differences in dynamic
              linker name):
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">

            <p>
              Note that on 64-bit systems <code class="filename">/lib</code>
              is the location of our dynamic linker, but is accessed via a
              symbolic link in /lib64.

            </div>
            <p>
              Now make sure that we're setup to use the correct start files:

            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep -o '/usr/lib.*/crt[1in].*succeeded' dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              The output of the last command should be:

            <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">/usr/lib/../lib/crt1.o succeeded

/usr/lib/../lib/crtn.o succeeded</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              Verify that the compiler is searching for the correct header
              files:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep -B1 '^ /usr/include' dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              This command should return the following output:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">#include &lt;...&gt; search starts here:
 /usr/include</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              Next, verify that the new linker is being used with the correct
              search paths:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep 'SEARCH.*/usr/lib' dummy.log |sed 's|; |\n|g'</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              References to paths that have components with '-linux-gnu'
              should be ignored, but otherwise the output of the last command
              should be:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib")
SEARCH_DIR("/lib")</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              Next make sure that we're using the correct libc:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep "/lib.*/libc.so.6 " dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              The output of the last command should be:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">attempt to open /lib/libc.so.6 succeeded</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              Lastly, make sure GCC is using the correct dynamic linker:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep found dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              The output of the last command should be (allowing for
              platform-specific differences in dynamic linker name):
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">found ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 at /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              If the output does not appear as shown above or is not received
              at all, then something is seriously wrong. Investigate and
              retrace the steps to find out where the problem is and correct
              it. The most likely reason is that something went wrong with
              the specs file adjustment. Any issues will need to be resolved
              before continuing with the process.
            </p>
            <p>
              Once everything is working correctly, clean up the test files:

                Reinstalling Readline will cause the old libraries to be
                moved to &lt;libraryname&gt;.old. While this is normally not
                a problem, in some cases it can trigger a linking bug in
                <span class="command"><strong>ldconfig</strong></span>. This
                can be avoided by issuing the following two seds:

              <p>

                Now move the dynamic libraries to a more appropriate location

                <p>
                  The code in gmp is highly optimized for the processor where
                  it is built. Occasionally, the code that detects the
                  processor misidentifies the system capabilities and there
                  will be errors in the tests or other applications using the
                  gmp libraries with the message "Illegal instruction". In
                  this case, gmp should be reconfigured with the option
                  --build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu and rebuilt.

                Configuring Shadow
              </h3>
              <p>
                This package contains utilities to add, modify, and delete
                users and groups; set and change their passwords; and perform
                other administrative tasks. For a full explanation of what
                <span class="emphasis"><em>password shadowing</em></span>
                means, see the <code class="filename">doc/HOWTO</code> file
                within the unpacked source tree. If using Shadow support,
                keep in mind that programs which need to verify passwords
                (display managers, FTP programs, pop3 daemons, etc.) must be
                Shadow-compliant. That is, they need to be able to work with
                shadowed passwords.
              </p>
              <p>
                To enable shadowed passwords, run the following command:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">pwconv</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                To enable shadowed group passwords, run:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grpconv</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Shadow's stock configuration for the <span class=
                "command"><strong>useradd</strong></span> utility has a few
                caveats that need some explanation. First, the default action
                for the <span class="command"><strong>useradd</strong></span>
                utility is to create the user and a group of the same name as
                the user. By default the user ID (UID) and group ID (GID)
                numbers will begin with 1000. This means if you don't pass
                parameters to <span class=
                "command"><strong>useradd</strong></span>, each user will be
                a member of a unique group on the system. If this behavior is
                undesirable, you'll need to pass the <em class=
                "parameter"><code>-g</code></em> parameter to <span class=
                "command"><strong>useradd</strong></span>. The default
                parameters are stored in the <code class=
                "filename">/etc/default/useradd</code> file. You may need to
                modify two parameters in this file to suit your particular
                needs.
              </p>
              <div class="variablelist">
                <p class="title">

                    <p>
                      This parameter sets the beginning of the group numbers
                      used in the /etc/group file. You can modify it to
                      anything you desire. Note that <span class=
                      "command"><strong>useradd</strong></span> will never
                      reuse a UID or GID. If the number identified in this
                      parameter is used, it will use the next available
                      number after this. Note also that if you don't have a
                      group 1000 on your system the first time you use
                      <span class="command"><strong>useradd</strong></span>
                      without the <em class="parameter"><code>-g</code></em>
                      parameter, you'll get a message displayed on the
                      terminal that says: <code class=
                      "computeroutput">useradd: unknown GID 1000</code>. You
                      may disregard this message and group number 1000 will
                      be used.
                    </p>
                  </dd>

                  </dt>
                  <dd>
                    <p>
                      This parameter causes <span class=
                      "command"><strong>useradd</strong></span> to create a
                      mailbox file for the newly created user. <span class=
                      "command"><strong>useradd</strong></span> will make the

                      "systemitem">mail</code> group with 0660 permissions.
                      If you would prefer that these mailbox files are not

                Six tests related to get_time are known to fail. These are
                apparently related to the en_HK locale.

                Two tests named lookup.cc and reverse.cc in experimental/net
                are known to fail in LFS chroot environment because they
                require /etc/hosts and iana-etc.
              </p>
              <p>
                Two tests named pr57193.c and pr90178.c are known to fail.

              <p>
                A few unexpected failures cannot always be avoided. The GCC
                developers are usually aware of these issues, but have not
                resolved them yet. Unless the test results are vastly
                different from those at the above URL, it is safe to
                continue.

                Now that our final toolchain is in place, it is important to
                again ensure that compiling and linking will work as
                expected. We do this by performing the same sanity checks as
                we did earlier in the chapter:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">echo 'int main(){}' &gt; dummy.c
cc dummy.c -v -Wl,--verbose &amp;&gt; dummy.log
readelf -l a.out | grep ': /lib'</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                There should be no errors, and the output of the last command
                will be (allowing for platform-specific differences in
                dynamic linker name):
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">[Requesting program interpreter: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2]</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                Now make sure that we're setup to use the correct start
                files:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep -o '/usr/lib.*/crt[1in].*succeeded' dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                The output of the last command should be:
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/9.2.0/../../../../lib/crt1.o succeeded

</pre>
              <p>
                Depending on your machine architecture, the above may differ
                slightly, the difference usually being the name of the
                directory after <code class="filename">/usr/lib/gcc</code>.
                The important thing to look for here is that <span class=
                "command"><strong>gcc</strong></span> has found all three
                <code class="filename">crt*.o</code> files under the
                <code class="filename">/usr/lib</code> directory.
              </p>
              <p>
                Verify that the compiler is searching for the correct header
                files:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep -B4 '^ /usr/include' dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                This command should return the following output:
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">#include &lt;...&gt; search starts here:
 /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/9.2.0/include

 /usr/include</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                Again, note that the directory named after your target
                triplet may be different than the above, depending on your
                architecture.
              </p>
              <p>
                Next, verify that the new linker is being used with the
                correct search paths:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep 'SEARCH.*/usr/lib' dummy.log |sed 's|; |\n|g'</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                References to paths that have components with '-linux-gnu'
                should be ignored, but otherwise the output of the last
                command should be:
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">SEARCH_DIR("/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/lib64")
SEARCH_DIR("/usr/local/lib64")
SEARCH_DIR("/lib64")

SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib");</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                A 32-bit system may see a few different directories. For
                example, here is the output from an i686 machine:
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">SEARCH_DIR("/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib32")

SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib32")
SEARCH_DIR("/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib")
SEARCH_DIR("/usr/local/lib")
SEARCH_DIR("/lib")
SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib");</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                Next make sure that we're using the correct libc:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep "/lib.*/libc.so.6 " dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                The output of the last command should be:
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">attempt to open /lib/libc.so.6 succeeded</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                Lastly, make sure GCC is using the correct dynamic linker:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">grep found dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                The output of the last command should be (allowing for
                platform-specific differences in dynamic linker name):
              </p>
              <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">found ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 at /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2</code>
</pre>
              <p>
                If the output does not appear as shown above or is not
                received at all, then something is seriously wrong.
                Investigate and retrace the steps to find out where the
                problem is and correct it. The most likely reason is that
                something went wrong with the specs file adjustment. Any
                issues will need to be resolved before continuing with the
                process.
              </p>
              <p>
                Once everything is working correctly, clean up the test
                files:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">rm -v dummy.c a.out dummy.log</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Finally, move a misplaced file:

              <pre class="userinput">

                This package has a test suite, but it can only be run after
                the package has been installed. The tests reside in the
                <code class="filename">test/</code> directory. See the
                <code class="filename">README</code> file in that directory
                for further details.
              </p>
              <p>
                Install the package:

                Move the shared libraries to the <code class=
                "filename">/lib</code> directory, where they are expected to
                reside:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">

</pre>
              <p>
                Because the libraries have been moved, one symlink points to
                a non-existent file. Recreate it:
              </p>

                Many applications still expect the linker to be able to find
                non-wide-character Ncurses libraries. Trick such applications
                into linking with wide-character libraries by means of
                symlinks and linker scripts:
              </p>

                Finally, make sure that old applications that look for
                <code class="filename">-lcurses</code> at build time are
                still buildable:

                <p>
                  The instructions above don't create non-wide-character
                  Ncurses libraries since no package installed by compiling
                  from sources would link against them at runtime. However,
                  the only known binary-only applications that link against
                  non-wide-character Ncurses libraries require version 5. If
                  you must have such libraries because of some binary-only
                  application or to be compliant with LSB, build the package
                  again with the following commands:

                <p>
                  The test time for libtool can be reduced significantly on a
                  system with multiple cores. To do this, append <span class=
                  "command"><strong>TESTSUITEFLAGS=-j&lt;N&gt;</strong></span>
                  to the line above. For instance, using -j4 can reduce the
                  test time by over 60 percent.
                </p>
              </div>
              <p>
                Five tests are known to fail in the LFS build environment due
                to a circular dependency, but all tests pass if rechecked
                after automake is installed.

                      This disables the installation of the various network
                      servers included as part of the Inetutils package.
                      These servers are deemed not appropriate in a basic LFS
                      system. Some are insecure by nature and are only
                      considered safe on trusted networks. Note that better
                      replacements are available for many of these servers.

                First create a basic <code class="filename">/etc/hosts</code>
                file to be referenced in one of Perl's configuration files as

                This version of Perl now builds the Compress::Raw::Zlib and
                Compress::Raw::BZip2 modules. By default Perl will use an
                internal copy of the sources for the build. Issue the
                following command so that Perl will use the libraries
                installed on the system:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">

export BUILD_BZIP2=0</kbd>

                To have full control over the way Perl is set up, you can
                remove the <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">-des</span>&rdquo;</span> options from the following
                command and hand-pick the way this package is built.
                Alternatively, use the command exactly as below to use the
                defaults that Perl auto-detects:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">

                  Similar to GMP, libffi builds with optimizations specific
                  to the proccesor in use. If building for another system,
                  export CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to specify a generic build for
                  your architecture. If this is not done, all applications
                  that link to libffi will trigger Illegal Operation Errors.

                6.52.1. Installation of Ninja
              </h3>
              <p>
                When run, ninja normally runs a maximum number of processes
                in parallel. By default this is the number of cores on the
                system plus two. In some cases this can overheat a CPU or run
                a system out of memory. If run from the command line, passing
                a -jN parameter will limit the number of parallel processes,
                but some packages embed the execution of ninja and do not
                pass a -j parameter.
              </p>
              <p>
                Using the <span class="emphasis"><em>optional</em></span>
                procedure below allows a user to limit the number of parallel
                processes via an environment variable, NINJAJOBS.
                <span class="command"><strong>For example</strong></span>,
                setting:
              </p>

export NINJAJOBS=4
</pre>
              <p>
                will limit ninja to four parallel processes.
              </p>
              <p>
                If desired, add the capability to use the environment
                variable NINJAJOBS by running:
              </p>

              </h3>
              <p>
                POSIX requires that programs from Coreutils recognize
                character boundaries correctly even in multibyte locales. The
                following patch fixes this non-compliance and other
                internationalization-related bugs.

                      The purpose of this switch is to prevent Coreutils from

              <p>
                Skip down to <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=

              <p>
                Now the test suite is ready to be run. First, run the tests
                that are meant to be run as user <code class=

<kbd class="command">make NON_ROOT_USERNAME=nobody check-root</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                We're going to run the remainder of the tests as the
                <code class="systemitem">nobody</code> user. Certain tests,
                however, require that the user be a member of more than one
                group. So that these tests are not skipped we'll add a
                temporary group and make the user <code class=
                "systemitem">nobody</code> a part of it:

              <p>
                Now run the tests. Make sure the PATH in the <strong class=
                "userinput"><code>su</code></strong> environment includes
                /tools/bin.
              </p>

                The Findutils package contains programs to find files. These
                programs are provided to recursively search through a
                directory tree and to create, maintain, and search a database
                (often faster than the recursive find, but unreliable if the
                database has not been recently updated).

              </h3>
              <p>
                Groff expects the environment variable <code class=
                "envar">PAGE</code> to contain the default paper size. For
                users in the United States, <em class=
                "parameter"><code>PAGE=letter</code></em> is appropriate.
                Elsewhere, <em class="parameter"><code>PAGE=A4</code></em>
                may be more suitable. While the default paper size is
                configured during compilation, it can be overridden later by
                echoing either <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">A4</span>&rdquo;</span> or <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">letter</span>&rdquo;</span> to the <code class=
                "filename">/etc/papersize</code> file.
              </p>
              <p>

              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">./configure --prefix=/usr</kbd>
</pre>

                Compile the package:

              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                To test the results, issue:

              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make check</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Two tests are known to fail in the LFS environment:
                help-version and zmore.

              <p>
                Install the package:

                Zstandard is a real-time compression algorithm, providing

                fast decoder.

                6.65.1. Installation of Kbd
              </h3>
              <p>
                The behaviour of the Backspace and Delete keys is not
                consistent across the keymaps in the Kbd package. The
                following patch fixes this issue for i386 keymaps:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">patch -Np1 -i ../kbd-2.2.0-backspace-1.patch</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                After patching, the Backspace key generates the character
                with code 127, and the Delete key generates a well-known
                escape sequence.

                <p>
                  For some languages (e.g., Belarusian) the Kbd package
                  doesn't provide a useful keymap where the stock
                  <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                  "quote">by</span>&rdquo;</span> keymap assumes the
                  ISO-8859-5 encoding, and the CP1251 keymap is normally
                  used. Users of such languages have to download working
                  keymaps separately.

                6.72.1. Installation of Vim
              </h3>
              <p>
                First, change the default location of the <code class=
                "filename">vimrc</code> configuration file to <code class=
                "filename">/etc</code>:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class=
"command">echo '#define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "/etc/vimrc"' &gt;&gt; src/feature.h</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Prepare Vim for compilation:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">./configure --prefix=/usr</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Compile the package:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                To prepare the tests, ensure that the <code class=
                "systemitem">nobody</code> user can write to the sources
                tree:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">chown -Rv nobody .</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Now run the tests as the <code class=
                "systemitem">nobody</code> user:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class=
"command">su nobody -s /bin/bash -c "LANG=en_US.UTF-8 make -j1 test" &amp;&gt; vim-test.log</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                The test suite outputs a lot of binary data to the screen.
                This can cause issues with the settings of the current
                terminal. The problem can be avoided by redirecting the
                output to a log file as shown above. A successful test will
                result in the words "ALL DONE" in the log file at completion.
              </p>
              <p>
                Install the package:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make install</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Many users are used to using <span class=
                "command"><strong>vi</strong></span> instead of <span class=
                "command"><strong>vim</strong></span>. To allow execution of
                <span class="command"><strong>vim</strong></span> when users
                habitually enter <span class=
                "command"><strong>vi</strong></span>, create a symlink for
                both the binary and the man page in the provided languages:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">ln -sv vim /usr/bin/vi
for L in  /usr/share/man/{,*/}man1/vim.1; do
    ln -sv vim.1 $(dirname $L)/vi.1
done</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                By default, Vim's documentation is installed in <code class=
                "filename">/usr/share/vim</code>. The following symlink
                allows the documentation to be accessed via <code class=
                "filename">/usr/share/doc/vim-8.2.0190</code>, making it
                consistent with the location of documentation for other
                packages:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class=
"command">ln -sv ../vim/vim82/doc /usr/share/doc/vim-8.2.0190</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                If an X Window System is going to be installed on the LFS
                system, it may be necessary to recompile Vim after installing
                X. Vim comes with a GUI version of the editor that requires X
                and some additional libraries to be installed. For more
                information on this process, refer to the Vim documentation
                and the Vim installation page in the BLFS book at <a class=

                <a id="conf-vim" name="conf-vim"></a>6.72.2. Configuring Vim
              </h3>
              <p>
                By default, <span class="command"><strong>vim</strong></span>
                runs in vi-incompatible mode. This may be new to users who
                have used other editors in the past. The <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">nocompatible</span>&rdquo;</span> setting is included
                below to highlight the fact that a new behavior is being
                used. It also reminds those who would change to <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">compatible</span>&rdquo;</span> mode that it should
                be the first setting in the configuration file. This is
                necessary because it changes other settings, and overrides
                must come after this setting. Create a default <span class=
                "command"><strong>vim</strong></span> configuration file by
                running the following:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">cat &gt; /etc/vimrc &lt;&lt; "EOF"
<code class="literal">" Begin /etc/vimrc

" Ensure defaults are set before customizing settings, not after
source $VIMRUNTIME/defaults.vim
let skip_defaults_vim=1 

set nocompatible
set backspace=2
set mouse=
syntax on
if (&amp;term == "xterm") || (&amp;term == "putty")
  set background=dark
endif

" End /etc/vimrc</code>
EOF</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                The <em class="parameter"><code>set nocompatible</code></em>
                setting makes <span class=
                "command"><strong>vim</strong></span> behave in a more useful
                way (the default) than the vi-compatible manner. Remove the
                <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">no</span>&rdquo;</span> to keep the old <span class=
                "command"><strong>vi</strong></span> behavior. The <em class=
                "parameter"><code>set backspace=2</code></em> setting allows
                backspacing over line breaks, autoindents, and the start of
                insert. The <em class="parameter"><code>syntax on</code></em>
                parameter enables vim's syntax highlighting. The <em class=
                "parameter"><code>set mouse=</code></em> setting enables
                proper pasting of text with the mouse when working in chroot
                or over a remote connection. Finally, the <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>if</em></span> statement with the <em class=
                "parameter"><code>set background=dark</code></em> setting
                corrects <span class="command"><strong>vim</strong></span>'s
                guess about the background color of some terminal emulators.
                This gives the highlighting a better color scheme for use on
                the black background of these programs.

                </h3>
                <p>
                  By default, Vim only installs spell files for the English
                  language. To install spell files for your preferred
                  language, download the <code class="filename">*.spl</code>
                  and optionally, the <code class="filename">*.sug</code>
                  files for your language and character encoding from
                  <a class="ulink" href=
                  "ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/spell/">ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/spell/</a>
                  and save them to <code class=
                  "filename">/usr/share/vim/vim82/spell/</code>.
                </p>
                <p>
                  To use these spell files, some configuration in
                  <code class="filename">/etc/vimrc</code> is needed, e.g.:
                </p>
                <pre class="screen">
<code class="literal">set spelllang=en,ru
set spell</code>

                The test suite needs some custom modifications for LFS.
                Remove a test that fails when scripting does not use a tty
                device and fix two others. To run the test suite, run the
                following commands:
              </p>

                  BLFS packages must be installed. If desired, this test can

                      Certain programs (such as the <span class=
                      "command"><strong>e2fsck</strong></span> program) are
                      considered essential programs. When, for example,
                      <code class="filename">/usr</code> is not mounted,
                      these programs still need to be available. They belong
                      in directories like <code class="filename">/lib</code>
                      and <code class="filename">/sbin</code>. If this option
                      is not passed to E2fsprogs' configure, the programs are
                      installed into the <code class="filename">/usr</code>
                      directory.
                    </p>

                  <dd>
                    <p>
                      This creates the shared libraries which some programs
                      in this package use.
                    </p>
                  </dd>

                    <p>
                      This prevents E2fsprogs from building and installing
                      the <code class="systemitem">libuuid</code> and

                      wrapper, as Util-Linux installs more recent versions.

              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>

              Most programs and libraries are, by default, compiled with
              debugging symbols included (with <span class=
              "command"><strong>gcc</strong></span>'s <em class=
              "parameter"><code>-g</code></em> option). This means that when
              debugging a program or library that was compiled with debugging
              information included, the debugger can provide not only memory
              addresses, but also the names of the routines and variables.
            </p>
            <p>
              However, the inclusion of these debugging symbols enlarges a
              program or library significantly. The following is an example
              of the amount of space these symbols occupy:

              Sizes may vary depending on which compiler and C library were
              used, but when comparing programs with and without debugging
              symbols, the difference will usually be a factor between two
              and five.

              Because most users will never use a debugger on their system
              software, a lot of disk space can be regained by removing these
              symbols. The next section shows how to strip all debugging
              symbols from the programs and libraries.

              This section is optional. If the intended user is not a
              programmer and does not plan to do any debugging on the system
              software, the system size can be decreased by about 90 MB by
              removing the debugging symbols from binaries and libraries.
              This causes no inconvenience other than not being able to debug
              the software fully anymore.

              Most people who use the commands mentioned below do not
              experience any difficulties. However, it is easy to make a typo
              and render the new system unusable, so before running the
              <span class="command"><strong>strip</strong></span> commands,
              it is a good idea to make a backup of the LFS system in its
              current state.

              First place the debugging symbols for selected libraries in
              separate files. This debugging information is needed if running
              regression tests that use <a class="ulink" href=

              A large number of files will be reported as having their file

              Booting a Linux system involves several tasks. The process must
              mount both virtual and real file systems, initialize devices,
              activate swap, check file systems for integrity, mount any swap
              partitions or files, set the system clock, bring up networking,
              start any daemons required by the system, and accomplish any
              other custom tasks needed by the user. This process must be
              organized to ensure the tasks are performed in the correct
              order but, at the same time, be executed as fast as possible.

                System V is the classic boot process that has been used in
                Unix and Unix-like systems such as Linux since about 1983. It
                consists of a small program, <span class=
                "command"><strong>init</strong></span>, that sets up basic
                programs such as <span class=
                "command"><strong>login</strong></span> (via getty) and runs
                a script. This script, usually named <span class=
                "command"><strong>rc</strong></span>, controls the execution
                of a set of additional scripts that perform the tasks
                required to initialize the system.

                The <span class="command"><strong>init</strong></span>

                "filename">/etc/inittab</code> file and is organized into run

                      Slower to boot. A medium speed base LFS system takes

                      first kernel message to the login prompt. Network
                      connectivity is typically established about 2 seconds

              "Chapter&nbsp;6.&nbsp;Installing Basic System Software">Chapter&nbsp;6</a>,
              we installed the Udev package when <span class=
              "phrase">eudev</span> was built. Before we go into the details
              regarding how this works, a brief history of previous methods
              of handling devices is in order.
            </p>
            <p>
              Linux systems in general traditionally used a static device
              creation method, whereby a great many device nodes were created
              under <code class="filename">/dev</code> (sometimes literally
              thousands of nodes), regardless of whether the corresponding
              hardware devices actually existed. This was typically done via
              a <span class="command"><strong>MAKEDEV</strong></span> script,
              which contains a number of calls to the <span class=
              "command"><strong>mknod</strong></span> program with the
              relevant major and minor device numbers for every possible
              device that might exist in the world.
            </p>
            <p>
              Using the Udev method, only those devices which are detected by
              the kernel get device nodes created for them. Because these
              device nodes will be created each time the system boots, they
              will be stored on a <code class="systemitem">devtmpfs</code>
              file system (a virtual file system that resides entirely in
              system memory). Device nodes do not require much space, so the

                7.3.1. History
              </h3>
              <p>
                In February 2000, a new filesystem called <code class=
                "systemitem">devfs</code> was merged into the 2.3.46 kernel
                and was made available during the 2.4 series of stable
                kernels. Although it was present in the kernel source itself,
                this method of creating devices dynamically never received
                overwhelming support from the core kernel developers.
              </p>
              <p>
                The main problem with the approach adopted by <code class=
                "systemitem">devfs</code> was the way it handled device
                detection, creation, and naming. The latter issue, that of
                device node naming, was perhaps the most critical. It is
                generally accepted that if device names are allowed to be
                configurable, then the device naming policy should be up to a
                system administrator, not imposed on them by any particular
                developer(s). The <code class="systemitem">devfs</code> file
                system also suffered from race conditions that were inherent
                in its design and could not be fixed without a substantial
                revision to the kernel. It was marked as deprecated for a
                long period &ndash; due to a lack of maintenance &ndash; and
                was finally removed from the kernel in June, 2006.
              </p>
              <p>
                With the development of the unstable 2.5 kernel tree, later
                released as the 2.6 series of stable kernels, a new virtual
                filesystem called <code class="systemitem">sysfs</code> came
                to be. The job of <code class="systemitem">sysfs</code> is to
                export a view of the system's hardware configuration to
                userspace processes. With this userspace-visible
                representation, the possibility of developing a userspace
                replacement for <code class="systemitem">devfs</code> became
                much more realistic.

                  The <code class="systemitem">sysfs</code> filesystem was
                  mentioned briefly above. One may wonder how <code class=
                  "systemitem">sysfs</code> knows about the devices present
                  on a system and what device numbers should be used for
                  them. Drivers that have been compiled into the kernel
                  directly register their objects with a <code class=
                  "systemitem">sysfs</code> (devtmpfs internally) as they are
                  detected by the kernel. For drivers compiled as modules,
                  this registration will happen when the module is loaded.
                  Once the <code class="systemitem">sysfs</code> filesystem
                  is mounted (on /sys), data which the drivers register with
                  <code class="systemitem">sysfs</code> are available to
                  userspace processes and to udevd for processing (including
                  modifications to device nodes).

                  Device drivers compiled as modules may have aliases built
                  into them. Aliases are visible in the output of the
                  <span class="command"><strong>modinfo</strong></span>
                  program and are usually related to the bus-specific
                  identifiers of devices supported by a module. For example,
                  the <span class="emphasis"><em>snd-fm801</em></span> driver
                  supports PCI devices with vendor ID 0x1319 and device ID
                  0x0801, and has an alias of <span class=
                  "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                  "quote">pci:v00001319d00000801sv*sd*bc04sc01i*</span>&rdquo;</span>.
                  For most devices, the bus driver exports the alias of the
                  driver that would handle the device via <code class=
                  "systemitem">sysfs</code>. E.g., the <code class=
                  "filename">/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:0d.0/modalias</code>
                  file might contain the string <span class=
                  "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                  "quote">pci:v00001319d00000801sv00001319sd00001319bc04sc01i00</span>&rdquo;</span>.
                  The default rules provided with Udev will cause
                  <span class="command"><strong>udevd</strong></span> to call
                  out to <span class=
                  "command"><strong>/sbin/modprobe</strong></span> with the
                  contents of the <code class="envar">MODALIAS</code> uevent
                  environment variable (which should be the same as the
                  contents of the <code class="filename">modalias</code> file
                  in sysfs), thus loading all modules whose aliases match
                  this string after wildcard expansion.
                </p>
                <p>
                  In this example, this means that, in addition to
                  <span class="emphasis"><em>snd-fm801</em></span>, the
                  obsolete (and unwanted) <span class=
                  "emphasis"><em>forte</em></span> driver will be loaded if
                  it is available. See below for ways in which the loading of
                  unwanted drivers can be prevented.
                </p>
                <p>
                  The kernel itself is also able to load modules for network

                  Udev will only load a module if it has a bus-specific alias
                  and the bus driver properly exports the necessary aliases
                  to <code class="systemitem">sysfs</code>. In other cases,
                  one should arrange module loading by other means. With
                  Linux-5.5.3, Udev is known to load properly-written drivers
                  for INPUT, IDE, PCI, USB, SCSI, SERIO, and FireWire
                  devices.
                </p>
                <p>
                  To determine if the device driver you require has the
                  necessary support for Udev, run <span class=
                  "command"><strong>modinfo</strong></span> with the module
                  name as the argument. Now try locating the device directory
                  under <code class="filename">/sys/bus</code> and check
                  whether there is a <code class="filename">modalias</code>
                  file there.
                </p>
                <p>
                  If the <code class="filename">modalias</code> file exists
                  in <code class="systemitem">sysfs</code>, the driver
                  supports the device and can talk to it directly, but
                  doesn't have the alias, it is a bug in the driver. Load the
                  driver without the help from Udev and expect the issue to
                  be fixed later.
                </p>
                <p>
                  If there is no <code class="filename">modalias</code> file
                  in the relevant directory under <code class=
                  "filename">/sys/bus</code>, this means that the kernel
                  developers have not yet added modalias support to this bus
                  type. With Linux-5.5.3, this is the case with ISA busses.
                  Expect this issue to be fixed in later kernel versions.

                  If the module in question is not a wrapper and is useful by
                  itself, configure the <span class=
                  "command"><strong>modules</strong></span> bootscript to
                  load this module on system boot. To do this, add the module
                  name to the <code class=
                  "filename">/etc/sysconfig/modules</code> file on a separate
                  line. This works for wrapper modules too, but is suboptimal
                  in that case.

                  This is due to the fact that Udev, by design, handles
                  uevents and loads modules in parallel, and thus in an
                  unpredictable order. This will never be <span class=

                  upon the kernel device names being stable. Instead, create
                  your own rules that make symlinks with stable names based
                  on some stable attributes of the device, such as a serial

                7.4.1. Network Devices
              </h3>
              <p>
                Udev, by default, names network devices according to
                Firmware/BIOS data or physical characteristics like the bus,
                slot, or MAC address. The purpose of this naming convention
                is to ensure that network devices are named consistently and
                not based on the time the network card was discovered. For
                example, on a computer having two network cards made by Intel
                and Realtek, the network card manufactured by Intel may
                become eth0 and the Realtek card becomes eth1. In some cases,
                after a reboot the cards get renumbered the other way around.
              </p>
              <p>
                In the new naming scheme, typical network device names would
                then be something like enp5s0 or wlp3s0. If this naming
                convention is not desired, the traditional naming scheme or a
                custom scheme can be implemented.

                  The traditional naming scheme using eth0, eth1, etc can be
                  restored by adding <strong class=
                  "userinput"><code>net.ifnames=0</code></strong> on the
                  kernel command line. This is most appropriate for those
                  systems that have only one ethernet device of the same
                  type. Laptops often have multiple ethernet connections that
                  are named eth0 and wlan0 and are also candidates for this
                  method. The command line is passed in the GRUB
                  configuration file. See <a class="xref" href="#grub-cfg"

                  in parentheses, if the driver can be found. Neither the
                  hardware ID nor the driver is used to determine which name
                  to give an interface; this information is only for
                  reference. The second line is the Udev rule that matches
                  this NIC and actually assigns it a name.

                  All Udev rules are made up of several keys, separated by
                  commas and optional whitespace. This rule's keys and an
                  explanation of each of them are as follows:

                        tells Udev to ignore devices that are not network

                        because the name that would be assigned would collide

                7.4.2. CD-ROM symlinks
              </h3>
              <p>
                Some software that you may want to install later (e.g.,
                various media players) expect the <code class=
                "filename">/dev/cdrom</code> and <code class=
                "filename">/dev/dvd</code> symlinks to exist, and to point to
                a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM device. Also, it may be convenient to put
                references to those symlinks into <code class=
                "filename">/etc/fstab</code>. Udev comes with a script that
                will generate rules files to create these symlinks for you,
                depending on the capabilities of each device, but you need to
                decide which of two modes of operation you wish to have the
                script use.
              </p>
              <p>
                First, the script can operate in <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">by-path</span>&rdquo;</span> mode (used by default
                for USB and FireWire devices), where the rules it creates
                depend on the physical path to the CD or DVD device. Second,
                it can operate in <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">by-id</span>&rdquo;</span> mode (default for IDE and
                SCSI devices), where the rules it creates depend on
                identification strings stored in the CD or DVD device itself.
                The path is determined by Udev's <span class=
                "command"><strong>path_id</strong></span> script, and the
                identification strings are read from the hardware by its
                <span class="command"><strong>ata_id</strong></span> or
                <span class="command"><strong>scsi_id</strong></span>
                programs, depending on which type of device you have.
              </p>
              <p>
                There are advantages to each approach; the correct approach
                to use will depend on what kinds of device changes may
                happen. If you expect the physical path to the device (that
                is, the ports and/or slots that it plugs into) to change, for
                example because you plan on moving the drive to a different
                IDE port or a different USB connector, then you should use
                the <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">by-id</span>&rdquo;</span> mode. On the other hand,
                if you expect the device's identification to change, for
                example because it may die, and you would replace it with a
                different device with the same capabilities and which is
                plugged into the same connectors, then you should use the
                <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">by-path</span>&rdquo;</span> mode.
              </p>
              <p>
                If either type of change is possible with your drive, then
                choose a mode based on the type of change you expect to
                happen more often.

                <p>
                  External devices (for example, a USB-connected CD drive)
                  should not use by-path persistence, because each time the
                  device is plugged into a new external port, its physical
                  path will change. All externally-connected devices will
                  have this problem if you write Udev rules to recognize them
                  by their physical path; the problem is not limited to CD
                  and DVD drives.
                </p>
              </div>
              <p>
                If you wish to see the values that the Udev scripts will use,
                then for the appropriate CD-ROM device, find the
                corresponding directory under <code class=
                "filename">/sys</code> (e.g., this can be <code class=
                "filename">/sys/block/hdd</code>) and run a command similar
                to the following:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">udevadm test /sys/block/hdd</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                Look at the lines containing the output of various *_id
                programs. The <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">by-id</span>&rdquo;</span> mode will use the
                ID_SERIAL value if it exists and is not empty, otherwise it
                will use a combination of ID_MODEL and ID_REVISION. The
                <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">by-path</span>&rdquo;</span> mode will use the
                ID_PATH value.
              </p>
              <p>
                If the default mode is not suitable for your situation, then
                the following modification can be made to the <code class=
                "filename">/etc/udev/rules.d/83-cdrom-symlinks.rules</code>
                file, as follows (where <em class=
                "replaceable"><code>mode</code></em> is one of <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">by-id</span>&rdquo;</span>
                or <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">by-path</span>&rdquo;</span>):

</pre>
              <p>
                Note that it is not necessary to create the rules files or
                symlinks at this time, because you have bind-mounted the
                host's <code class="filename">/dev</code> directory into the
                LFS system, and we assume the symlinks exist on the host. The
                rules and symlinks will be created the first time you boot
                your LFS system.
              </p>
              <p>
                However, if you have multiple CD-ROM devices, then the
                symlinks generated at that time may point to different
                devices than they point to on your host, because devices are
                not discovered in a predictable order. The assignments
                created when you first boot the LFS system will be stable, so
                this is only an issue if you need the symlinks on both
                systems to point to the same device. If you need that, then
                inspect (and possibly edit) the generated <code class=
                "filename">/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules</code>
                file after booting, to make sure the assigned symlinks match
                what you need.

                7.4.3. Dealing with duplicate devices
              </h3>
              <p>
                As explained in <a class="xref" href="#ch-config-udev" title=
                "7.3.&nbsp;Overview of Device and Module Handling">Section&nbsp;7.3,
                &ldquo;Overview of Device and Module Handling&rdquo;</a>, the
                order in which devices with the same function appear in
                <code class="filename">/dev</code> is essentially random.
                E.g., if you have a USB web camera and a TV tuner, sometimes
                <code class="filename">/dev/video0</code> refers to the
                camera and <code class="filename">/dev/video1</code> refers
                to the tuner, and sometimes after a reboot the order changes
                to the opposite one. For all classes of hardware except sound
                cards and network cards, this is fixable by creating Udev
                rules for custom persistent symlinks. The case of network
                cards is covered separately in <a class="xref" href=
                "#ch-config-network" title=
                "7.5.&nbsp;General Network Configuration">Section&nbsp;7.5,

                For each of your devices that is likely to have this problem
                (even if the problem doesn't exist in your current Linux
                distribution), find the corresponding directory under
                <code class="filename">/sys/class</code> or <code class=
                "filename">/sys/block</code>. For video devices, this may be
                <code class="filename">/sys/class/video4linux/video<em class=
                "replaceable"><code>X</code></em></code>. Figure out the
                attributes that identify the device uniquely (usually, vendor
                and product IDs and/or serial numbers work):

              <p>
                Then write rules that create the symlinks, e.g.:

              <pre class="userinput">

              <p>
                Which interfaces are brought up and down by the network
                script usually depends on the files in <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/</code>. This directory should
                contain a file for each interface to be configured, such as
                <code class="filename">ifconfig.xyz</code>, where
                <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                "quote">xyz</span>&rdquo;</span> should describe the network
                card. The interface name (e.g. eth0) is usually appropriate.
                Inside this file are attributes to this interface, such as
                its IP address(es), subnet masks, and so forth. It is
                necessary that the stem of the filename be <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>ifconfig</em></span>.

                The <code class="envar">SERVICE</code> variable defines the
                method used for obtaining the IP address. The LFS-Bootscripts
                package has a modular IP assignment format, and creating
                additional files in the <code class=
                "filename">/lib/services/</code> directory allows other IP
                assignment methods. This is commonly used for Dynamic Host
                Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which is addressed in the BLFS
                book.

              <p>
                The <code class="envar">GATEWAY</code> variable should
                contain the default gateway IP address, if one is present. If
                not, then comment out the variable entirely.
              </p>
              <p>
                The <code class="envar">PREFIX</code> variable contains the
                number of bits used in the subnet. Each octet in an IP
                address is 8 bits. If the subnet's netmask is 255.255.255.0,
                then it is using the first three octets (24 bits) to specify
                the network number. If the netmask is 255.255.255.240, it
                would be using the first 28 bits. Prefixes longer than 24
                bits are commonly used by DSL and cable-based Internet
                Service Providers (ISPs). In this example (PREFIX=24), the
                netmask is 255.255.255.0. Adjust the <code class=
                "envar">PREFIX</code> variable according to your specific
                subnet. If omitted, the PREFIX defaults to 24.

                The system will need some means of obtaining Domain Name

                7.6.1. How Do the System V Bootscripts Work?
              </h3>
              <p>
                Linux uses a special booting facility named SysVinit that is
                based on a concept of <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>run-levels</em></span>. It can be quite
                different from one system to another, so it cannot be assumed
                that because things worked in one particular Linux
                distribution, they should work the same in LFS too. LFS has
                its own way of doing things, but it respects generally
                accepted standards.
              </p>
              <p>
                SysVinit (which will be referred to as <span class=
                "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">init</span>&rdquo;</span>
                from now on) works using a run-levels scheme. There are seven
                (numbered 0 to 6) run-levels (actually, there are more
                run-levels, but they are for special cases and are generally
                not used. See <code class="filename">init(8)</code> for more
                details), and each one of those corresponds to the actions
                the computer is supposed to perform when it starts up. The
                default run-level is 3. Here are the descriptions of the
                different run-levels as they are implemented:

                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/rc.site</code>. Any of the system
                configuration file parameters described in subsequent
                sections can be alternatively placed in this file allowing
                consolidation of all system parameters in this one file.

                As a debugging convenience, the functions script also logs
                all output to <code class="filename">/run/var/bootlog</code>.
                Since the <code class="filename">/run</code> directory is a
                tmpfs, this file is not persistent across boots, however it
                is appended to the more permanent file <code class=
                "filename">/var/log/boot.log</code> at the end of the boot
                process.

                  Changing run-levels is done with <span class=
                  "command"><strong>init <em class=
                  "replaceable"><code>&lt;runlevel&gt;</code></em></strong></span>,
                  where <em class=
                  "replaceable"><code>&lt;runlevel&gt;</code></em> is the
                  target run-level. For example, to reboot the computer, a
                  user could issue the <span class="command"><strong>init
                  6</strong></span> command, which is an alias for the
                  <span class="command"><strong>reboot</strong></span>
                  command. Likewise, <span class="command"><strong>init
                  0</strong></span> is an alias for the <span class=
                  "command"><strong>halt</strong></span> command.
                </p>
                <p>
                  There are a number of directories under <code class=
                  "filename">/etc/rc.d</code> that look like <code class=
                  "filename">rc?.d</code> (where ? is the number of the
                  run-level) and <code class="filename">rcsysinit.d</code>,
                  all containing a number of symbolic links. Some begin with
                  a <span class="emphasis"><em>K</em></span>, the others
                  begin with an <span class="emphasis"><em>S</em></span>, and
                  all of them have two numbers following the initial letter.
                  The K means to stop (kill) a service and the S means to
                  start a service. The numbers determine the order in which
                  the scripts are run, from 00 to 99&mdash;the lower the
                  number the earlier it gets executed. When <span class=
                  "command"><strong>init</strong></span> switches to another
                  run-level, the appropriate services are either started or
                  stopped, depending on the runlevel chosen.
                </p>
                <p>
                  The real scripts are in <code class=
                  "filename">/etc/rc.d/init.d</code>. They do the actual
                  work, and the symlinks all point to them. K links and S
                  links point to the same script in <code class=
                  "filename">/etc/rc.d/init.d</code>. This is because the
                  scripts can be called with different parameters like
                  <em class="parameter"><code>start</code></em>, <em class=
                  "parameter"><code>stop</code></em>, <em class=
                  "parameter"><code>restart</code></em>, <em class=
                  "parameter"><code>reload</code></em>, and <em class=
                  "parameter"><code>status</code></em>. When a K link is
                  encountered, the appropriate script is run with the
                  <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em> argument. When
                  an S link is encountered, the appropriate script is run
                  with the <em class="parameter"><code>start</code></em>
                  argument.
                </p>
                <p>
                  There is one exception to this explanation. Links that
                  start with an <span class="emphasis"><em>S</em></span> in
                  the <code class="filename">rc0.d</code> and <code class=
                  "filename">rc6.d</code> directories will not cause anything
                  to be started. They will be called with the parameter
                  <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em> to stop
                  something. The logic behind this is that when a user is
                  going to reboot or halt the system, nothing needs to be
                  started. The system only needs to be stopped.
                </p>

                7.6.3. Udev Bootscripts
              </h3>
              <p>
                The <code class="filename">/etc/rc.d/init.d/udev</code>
                initscript starts <span class=
                "command"><strong>udevd</strong></span>, triggers any
                "coldplug" devices that have already been created by the
                kernel and waits for any rules to complete. The script also
                unsets the uevent handler from the default of <code class=
                "filename">/sbin/hotplug</code> . This is done because the
                kernel no longer needs to call out to an external binary.
                Instead <span class="command"><strong>udevd</strong></span>
                will listen on a netlink socket for uevents that the kernel
                raises.
              </p>
              <p>
                The <span class=
                "command"><strong>/etc/rc.d/init.d/udev_retry</strong></span>
                initscript takes care of re-triggering events for subsystems
                whose rules may rely on filesystems that are not mounted
                until the <span class=
                "command"><strong>mountfs</strong></span> script is run (in
                particular, <code class="filename">/usr</code> and
                <code class="filename">/var</code> may cause this). This
                script runs after the <span class=
                "command"><strong>mountfs</strong></span> script, so those
                rules (if re-triggered) should succeed the second time
                around. It is configured from the <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/udev_retry</code> file; any words
                in this file other than comments are considered subsystem
                names to trigger at retry time. To find the subsystem of a
                device, use <span class="command"><strong>udevadm info
                --attribute-walk &lt;device&gt;</strong></span> where
                &lt;device&gt; is an absolute path in /dev or /sys such as
                /dev/sr0 or /sys/class/rtc.

                Configuring the System Clock
              </h3>
              <p>
                The <span class="command"><strong>setclock</strong></span>
                script reads the time from the hardware clock, also known as
                the BIOS or the Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor
                (CMOS) clock. If the hardware clock is set to UTC, this
                script will convert the hardware clock's time to the local
                time using the <code class="filename">/etc/localtime</code>
                file (which tells the <span class=
                "command"><strong>hwclock</strong></span> program which
                timezone the user is in). There is no way to detect whether
                or not the hardware clock is set to UTC, so this needs to be
                configured manually.
              </p>
              <p>
                The <span class="command"><strong>setclock</strong></span> is
                run via <span class="application">udev</span> when the kernel
                detects the hardware capability upon boot. It can also be run
                manually with the stop parameter to store the system time to
                the CMOS clock.
              </p>
              <p>
                If you cannot remember whether or not the hardware clock is
                set to UTC, find out by running the <strong class=
                "userinput"><code>hwclock --localtime --show</code></strong>
                command. This will display what the current time is according
                to the hardware clock. If this time matches whatever your
                watch says, then the hardware clock is set to local time. If
                the output from <span class=
                "command"><strong>hwclock</strong></span> is not local time,
                chances are it is set to UTC time. Verify this by adding or
                subtracting the proper amount of hours for the timezone to
                the time shown by <span class=
                "command"><strong>hwclock</strong></span>. For example, if
                you are currently in the MST timezone, which is also known as
                GMT -0700, add seven hours to the local time.
              </p>
              <p>
                Change the value of the <code class="envar">UTC</code>
                variable below to a value of <em class=
                "parameter"><code>0</code></em> (zero) if the hardware clock
                is <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> set to UTC
                time.
              </p>
              <p>
                Create a new file <code class=

                Configuring the Linux Console
              </h3>
              <p>
                This section discusses how to configure the <span class=
                "command"><strong>console</strong></span> bootscript that
                sets up the keyboard map, console font and console kernel log
                level. If non-ASCII characters (e.g., the copyright sign, the
                British pound sign and Euro symbol) will not be used and the
                keyboard is a U.S. one, much of this section can be skipped.
                Without the configuration file, (or equivalent settings in
                <code class="filename">rc.site</code>), the <span class=
                "command"><strong>console</strong></span> bootscript will do
                nothing.
              </p>
              <p>
                The <span class="command"><strong>console</strong></span>
                script reads the <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/console</code> file for
                configuration information. Decide which keymap and screen
                font will be used. Various language-specific HOWTOs can also
                help with this, see <a class="ulink" href=

                      This is useful if the stock keymap is not completely
                      satisfactory and a small adjustment has to be made.
                      E.g., to include the Euro sign into a keymap that
                      normally doesn't have it, set this variable to

                      program. Typically, this includes the font name,

                      "quote">-m</span>&rdquo;</span>, and the name of the
                      application character map to load. E.g., in order to
                      load the <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                      "quote">lat1-16</span>&rdquo;</span> font together with
                      the <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=

                      character map (as it is appropriate in the USA), set
                      this variable to <span class=

                      8859-1</span>&rdquo;</span>. In UTF-8 mode, the kernel
                      uses the application character map for conversion of
                      composed 8-bit key codes in the keymap to UTF-8, and
                      thus the argument of the "-m" parameter should be set
                      to the encoding of the composed key codes in the
                      keymap.

                      For many keyboard layouts, there is no stock Unicode
                      keymap in the Kbd package. The <span class=
                      "command"><strong>console</strong></span> bootscript
                      will convert an available keymap to UTF-8 on the fly if
                      this variable is set to the encoding of the available
                      non-UTF-8 keymap.

                      For a non-Unicode setup, only the KEYMAP and FONT
                      variables are generally needed. E.g., for a Polish
                      setup, one would use:

                    <pre class="userinput">

                      As mentioned above, it is sometimes necessary to adjust

                      Due to the use of a 512-glyph LatArCyrHeb-16 font in
                      the previous example, bright colors are no longer
                      available on the Linux console unless a framebuffer is
                      used. If one wants to have bright colors without

                      Some keymaps have dead keys (i.e., keys that don't
                      produce a character by themselves, but put an accent on
                      the character produced by the next key) or define
                      composition rules (such as: <span class=
                      "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">press Ctrl+. A E to
                      get �</span>&rdquo;</span> in the default keymap).
                      Linux-5.5.3 interprets dead keys and composition rules
                      in the keymap correctly only when the source characters
                      to be composed together are not multibyte. This
                      deficiency doesn't affect keymaps for European
                      languages, because there accents are added to
                      unaccented ASCII characters, or two ASCII characters
                      are composed together. However, in UTF-8 mode it is a
                      problem, e.g., for the Greek language, where one
                      sometimes needs to put an accent on the letter
                      <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
                      "quote">alpha</span>&rdquo;</span>. The solution is
                      either to avoid the use of UTF-8, or to install the X
                      window system that doesn't have this limitation in its
                      input handling.

              <p>
                The optional <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/rc.site</code> file contains
                settings that are automatically set for each SystemV boot
                script. It can alternatively set the values specified in the
                <code class="filename">hostname</code>, <code class=
                "filename">console</code>, and <code class=
                "filename">clock</code> files in the <code class=
                "filename">/etc/sysconfig/</code> directory. If the
                associated variables are present in both these separate files
                and <code class="filename">rc.site</code>, the values in the
                script specific files have precedence.
              </p>
              <p>
                <code class="filename">rc.site</code> also contains
                parameters that can customize other aspects of the boot
                process. Setting the IPROMPT variable will enable selective
                running of bootscripts. Other options are described in the
                file comments. The default version of the file is as follows:

                  The LFS boot scripts boot and shut down a system in a
                  fairly efficient manner, but there are a few tweaks that
                  you can make in the rc.site file to improve speed even more
                  and to adjust messages according to your preferences. To do
                  this, adjust the settings in the <code class=
                  "filename">/etc/sysconfig/rc.site</code> file above.
                </p>

                        During the boot script <code class=
                        "filename">udev</code>, there is a call to
                        <span class="command"><strong>udev
                        settle</strong></span> that requires some time to

                        depending on devices present in the system. If you
                        only have simple partitions and a single ethernet
                        card, the boot process will probably not need to wait
                        for this command. To skip it, set the variable
                        OMIT_UDEV_SETTLE=y.

                        the <code class="filename">/var</code> directory is
                        separately mounted. This is because the clock needs
                        the file <code class=
                        "filename">/var/lib/hwclock/adjtime</code>. Other
                        customizations may also need to wait for udev to
                        complete, but in many installations it is not needed.
                        Skip the command by setting the variable

                        and sends each process a KILL signal and waits again.
                        This process is repeated in the <span class=

                        passing a parameter. For example to remove the delay
                        in <span class=

              to as <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">the
              shell</span>&rdquo;</span>) uses a collection of startup files
              to help create an environment to run in. Each file has a
              specific use and may affect login and interactive environments
              differently. The files in the <code class=
              "filename">/etc</code> directory provide global settings. If an
              equivalent file exists in the home directory, it may override

            <p>
              An interactive login shell is started after a successful login,
              using <span class="command"><strong>/bin/login</strong></span>,
              by reading the <code class="filename">/etc/passwd</code> file.
              An interactive non-login shell is started at the command-line
              (e.g., <code class="prompt">[prompt]$</code><span class=
              "command"><strong>/bin/bash</strong></span>). A non-interactive
              shell is usually present when a shell script is running. It is
              non-interactive because it is processing a script and not
              waiting for user input between commands.

              "quote">UTF-8</span>&rdquo;</span> is written as <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">UTF-8</span>&rdquo;</span>,
              not <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">utf8</span>&rdquo;</span>), so it is safest in most
              cases to choose the canonical name for a particular locale. To
              determine the canonical name, run the following command, where
              <em class="replaceable"><code>&lt;locale name&gt;</code></em>
              is the output given by <span class="command"><strong>locale
              -a</strong></span> for your preferred locale (<span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">en_GB.iso88591</span>&rdquo;</span> in our example).
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">LC_ALL=<em class=
"replaceable"><code>&lt;locale name&gt;</code></em> locale charmap</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              For the <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">en_GB.iso88591</span>&rdquo;</span> locale, the above
              command will print:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">ISO-8859-1</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              This results in a final locale setting of <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">en_GB.ISO-8859-1</span>&rdquo;</span>. It is important
              that the locale found using the heuristic above is tested prior
              to it being added to the Bash startup files:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">LC_ALL=&lt;locale name&gt; locale language
LC_ALL=&lt;locale name&gt; locale charmap
LC_ALL=&lt;locale name&gt; locale int_curr_symbol
LC_ALL=&lt;locale name&gt; locale int_prefix</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              The above commands should print the language name, the
              character encoding used by the locale, the local currency, and
              the prefix to dial before the telephone number in order to get
              into the country. If any of the commands above fail with a
              message similar to the one shown below, this means that your
              locale was either not installed in Chapter&nbsp;6 or is not
              supported by the default installation of Glibc.
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">locale: Cannot set LC_* to default locale: No such file or directory</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              If this happens, you should either install the desired locale
              using the <span class=
              "command"><strong>localedef</strong></span> command, or
              consider choosing a different locale. Further instructions
              assume that there are no such error messages from Glibc.
            </p>
            <p>
              Some packages beyond LFS may also lack support for your chosen
              locale. One example is the X library (part of the X Window
              System), which outputs the following error message if the
              locale does not exactly match one of the character map names in
              its internal files:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"computeroutput">Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              In several cases Xlib expects that the character map will be
              listed in uppercase notation with canonical dashes. For
              instance, "ISO-8859-1" rather than "iso88591". It is also
              possible to find an appropriate specification by removing the
              charmap part of the locale specification. This can be checked
              by running the <span class="command"><strong>locale
              charmap</strong></span> command in both locales. For example,
              one would have to change "de_DE.ISO-8859-15@euro" to
              "de_DE@euro" in order to get this locale recognized by Xlib.
            </p>
            <p>
              Other packages can also function incorrectly (but may not
              necessarily display any error messages) if the locale name does
              not meet their expectations. In those cases, investigating how
              other Linux distributions support your locale might provide
              some useful information.
            </p>
            <p>
              Once the proper locale settings have been determined, create
              the <code class="filename">/etc/profile</code> file:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">cat &gt; /etc/profile &lt;&lt; "EOF"
<code class="literal"># Begin /etc/profile

              The <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">C</span>&rdquo;</span> (default) and <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">en_US</span>&rdquo;</span>
              (the recommended one for United States English users) locales
              are different. <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">C</span>&rdquo;</span> uses the US-ASCII 7-bit
              character set, and treats bytes with the high bit set as
              invalid characters. That's why, e.g., the <span class=
              "command"><strong>ls</strong></span> command substitutes them
              with question marks in that locale. Also, an attempt to send
              mail with such characters from Mutt or Pine results in
              non-RFC-conforming messages being sent (the charset in the
              outgoing mail is indicated as <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">unknown
              8-bit</span>&rdquo;</span>). So you can use the <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">C</span>&rdquo;</span>
              locale only if you are sure that you will never need 8-bit
              characters.
            </p>
            <p>
              UTF-8 based locales are not supported well by some programs.
              Work is in progress to document and, if possible, fix such
              problems, see <a class="ulink" href=

              The <code class="filename">inputrc</code> file is the
              configuration file for the Readline library, which provides
              editing capabilities while the user is entering a line from the
              terminal. It works by translating keyboard inputs into specific
              actions. Readline is used by Bash and most other shells as well
              as many other applications.
            </p>
            <p>
              Most people do not need user-specific functionality so the
              command below creates a global <code class=
              "filename">/etc/inputrc</code> used by everyone who logs in. If
              you later decide you need to override the defaults on a
              per-user basis, you can create a <code class=
              "filename">.inputrc</code> file in the user's home directory
              with the modified mappings.

            <p>
              Filesystems with MS-DOS or Windows origin (i.e. vfat, ntfs,
              smbfs, cifs, iso9660, udf) need a special option, utf8, in
              order for non-ASCII characters in file names to be interpreted
              properly. For non-UTF-8 locales, the value of <code class=
              "option">iocharset</code> should be set to be the same as the
              character set of the locale, adjusted in such a way that the
              kernel understands it. This works if the relevant character set
              definition (found under File systems -&gt; Native Language
              Support when configuring the kernel) has been compiled into the
              kernel or built as a module. However, if the character set of
              the locale is UTF-8, the corresponding option <code class=
              "option">iocharset=utf8</code> would make the file system case
              sensitive. To fix this, use the special option <code class=
              "option">utf8</code> instead of <code class=
              "option">iocharset=utf8</code>, for UTF-8 locales. The
              <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class=
              "quote">codepage</span>&rdquo;</span> option is also needed for
              vfat and smbfs filesystems. It should be set to the codepage
              number used under MS-DOS in your country. For example, in order
              to mount USB flash drives, a ru_RU.KOI8-R user would need the
              following in the options portion of its mount line in
              <code class="filename">/etc/fstab</code>:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class=
"literal">noauto,user,quiet,showexec,codepage=866,iocharset=koi8r</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              The corresponding options fragment for ru_RU.UTF-8 users is:
            </p>
            <pre class="screen">
<code class="literal">noauto,user,quiet,showexec,codepage=866,utf8</code>
</pre>
            <p>
              Note that using <code class="option">iocharset</code> is the
              default for <code class="literal">iso8859-1</code> (which keeps
              the file system case insensitive), and the <code class=
              "option">utf8</code> option tells the kernel to convert the
              file names using UTF-8 so they can be interpreted in the UTF-8
              locale.
            </p>
            <p>
              It is also possible to specify default codepage and iocharset
              values for some filesystems during kernel configuration. The
              relevant parameters are named <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">Default NLS
              Option</span>&rdquo;</span> (<code class=
              "option">CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT)</code>, <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">Default Remote NLS
              Option</span>&rdquo;</span> (<code class=
              "option">CONFIG_SMB_NLS_DEFAULT</code>), <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">Default codepage for
              FAT</span>&rdquo;</span> (<code class=
              "option">CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE</code>), and <span class=
              "quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">Default iocharset for
              FAT</span>&rdquo;</span> (<code class=
              "option">CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET</code>). There is no way
              to specify these settings for the ntfs filesystem at kernel
              compilation time.
            </p>
            <p>
              It is possible to make the ext3 filesystem reliable across
              power failures for some hard disk types. To do this, add the
              <code class="option">barrier=1</code> mount option to the
              appropriate entry in <code class="filename">/etc/fstab</code>.
              To check if the disk drive supports this option, run <a class=
              "ulink" href=
              "http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/9.1/general/hdparm.html">
              hdparm</a> on the applicable disk drive. For example, if:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">hdparm -I /dev/sda | grep NCQ</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              returns non-empty output, the option is supported.
            </p>
            <p>
              Note: Logical Volume Management (LVM) based partitions cannot
              use the <code class="option">barrier</code> option.

              </h3>
              <p>
                Building the kernel involves a few steps&mdash;configuration,
                compilation, and installation. Read the <code class=
                "filename">README</code> file in the kernel source tree for
                alternative methods to the way this book configures the
                kernel.
              </p>
              <p>
                Prepare for compilation by running the following command:
              </p>
              <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make mrproper</kbd>
</pre>
              <p>
                This ensures that the kernel tree is absolutely clean. The
                kernel team recommends that this command be issued prior to
                each kernel compilation. Do not rely on the source tree being
                clean after un-tarring.
              </p>
              <p>
                Configure the kernel via a menu-driven interface. For general

                It is important to note that the files in the kernel source
                directory are not owned by <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>root</em></span>. Whenever a package is
                unpacked as user <span class="emphasis"><em>root</em></span>
                (like we did inside chroot), the files have the user and
                group IDs of whatever they were on the packager's computer.
                This is usually not a problem for any other package to be
                installed because the source tree is removed after the
                installation. However, the Linux source tree is often
                retained for a long time. Because of this, there is a chance
                that whatever user ID the packager used will be assigned to
                somebody on the machine. That person would then have write
                access to the kernel source.

                Most of the time Linux modules are loaded automatically, but
                sometimes it needs some specific direction. The program that
                loads modules, <span class=

                This file needs to be created so that if the USB drivers
                (ehci_hcd, ohci_hcd and uhci_hcd) have been built as modules,
                they will be loaded in the correct order; ehci_hcd needs to
                be loaded prior to ohci_hcd and uhci_hcd in order to avoid a
                warning being output at boot time.

                8.4.2. GRUB Naming Conventions
              </h3>
              <p>
                GRUB uses its own naming structure for drives and partitions
                in the form of <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>(hdn,m)</em></span>, where <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>n</em></span> is the hard drive number and
                <span class="emphasis"><em>m</em></span> is the partition
                number. The hard drive number starts from zero, but the
                partition number starts from one for normal partitions and
                five for extended partitions. Note that this is different
                from earlier versions where both numbers started from zero.
                For example, partition <code class="filename">sda1</code> is
                <span class="emphasis"><em>(hd0,1)</em></span> to GRUB and
                <code class="filename">sdb3</code> is <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>(hd1,3)</em></span>. In contrast to Linux,
                GRUB does not consider CD-ROM drives to be hard drives. For
                example, if using a CD on <code class="filename">hdb</code>
                and a second hard drive on <code class="filename">hdc</code>,
                that second hard drive would still be <span class=
                "emphasis"><em>(hd1)</em></span>.

                8.4.3. Setting Up the Configuration
              </h3>
              <p>
                GRUB works by writing data to the first physical track of the
                hard disk. This area is not part of any file system. The
                programs there access GRUB modules in the boot partition. The
                default location is /boot/grub/.
              </p>
              <p>
                The location of the boot partition is a choice of the user
                that affects the configuration. One recommendation is to have
                a separate small (suggested size is 100 MB) partition just
                for boot information. That way each build, whether LFS or
                some commercial distro, can access the same boot files and
                access can be made from any booted system. If you choose to
                do this, you will need to mount the separate partition, move
                all files in the current <code class="filename">/boot</code>
                directory (e.g. the linux kernel you just built in the
                previous section) to the new partition. You will then need to
                unmount the partition and remount it as <code class=
                "filename">/boot</code>. If you do this, be sure to update
                <code class="filename">/etc/fstab</code>.
              </p>
              <p>
                Using the current lfs partition will also work, but
                configuration for multiple systems is more difficult.
              </p>
              <p>
                Using the above information, determine the appropriate
                designator for the root partition (or boot partition, if a
                separate one is used). For the following example, it is
                assumed that the root (or separate boot) partition is
                <code class="filename">sda2</code>.
              </p>
              <p>
                Install the GRUB files into <code class=

                GRUB is an extremely powerful program and it provides a
                tremendous number of options for booting from a wide variety
                of devices, operating systems, and partition types. There are
                also many options for customization such as graphical splash
                screens, playing sounds, mouse input, etc. The details of
                these options are beyond the scope of this introduction.

              Well done! The new LFS system is installed! We wish you much
              success with your shiny new custom-built Linux system.
            </p>
            <p>
              It may be a good idea to create an <code class=
              "filename">/etc/lfs-release</code> file. By having this file,
              it is very easy for you (and for us if you need to ask for help
              at some point) to find out which LFS version is installed on
              the system. Create this file by running:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">echo 9.1 &gt; /etc/lfs-release</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Two files describing the installed system may be used by
              packages that will be installed on the system, either in binary
              form or by building them.
            </p>
            <p>
              The first one shows the status of your new system with respect
              to the Linux Standards Base (LSB). To create this file, run:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">cat &gt; /etc/lsb-release &lt;&lt; "EOF"

DISTRIB_RELEASE="9.1"
DISTRIB_CODENAME="&lt;your name here&gt;"
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux From Scratch"
EOF</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              The second one contains roughly the same information, and is
              used by systemd and some graphical desktop environments. To
              create this file, run:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">cat &gt; /etc/os-release &lt;&lt; "EOF"

              Now that all of the software has been installed, it is time to
              reboot your computer. However, you should be aware of a few
              things. The system you have created in this book is quite
              minimal, and most likely will not have the functionality you
              would need to be able to continue forward. By installing a few
              extra packages from the BLFS book while still in our current
              chroot environment, you can leave yourself in a much better
              position to continue on once you reboot into your new LFS
              installation. Here are some suggestions:

              Now that we have said that, let's move on to booting our shiny
              new LFS installation for the first time! First exit from the
              chroot environment:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">logout</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Then unmount the virtual file systems:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">umount -v $LFS/dev/pts
umount -v $LFS/dev
umount -v $LFS/run
umount -v $LFS/proc
umount -v $LFS/sys</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Unmount the LFS file system itself:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">umount -v $LFS</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              If multiple partitions were created, unmount the other
              partitions before unmounting the main one, like this:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">umount -v $LFS/usr
umount -v $LFS/home
umount -v $LFS</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Now, reboot the system with:
            </p>
            <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">shutdown -r now</kbd>
</pre>
            <p>
              Assuming the GRUB boot loader was set up as outlined earlier,
              the menu is set to boot <span class="emphasis"><em>LFS
              9.1</em></span> automatically.
            </p>
            <p>
              When the reboot is complete, the LFS system is ready for use
              and more software may be added to suit your needs.

              Thank you for reading this LFS book. We hope that you have
              found this book helpful and have learned more about the system
              creation process.

              Now that the LFS system is installed, you may be wondering
              <span class="quote">&ldquo;<span class="quote">What
              next?</span>&rdquo;</span> To answer that question, we have
              compiled a list of resources for you.

                    Bugs and security notices are reported regularly for all
                    software. Since an LFS system is compiled from source, it
                    is up to you to keep abreast of such reports. There are
                    several online resources that track such reports, some of
                    which are shown below:

            Every package built in LFS relies on one or more other packages
            in order to build and install properly. Some packages even
            participate in circular dependencies, that is, the first package
            depends on the second which in turn depends on the first. Because
            of these dependencies, the order in which packages are built in
            LFS is very important. The purpose of this page is to document
            the dependencies of each package built in LFS.
          </p>
          <p>
            For each package we build, we have listed three, and sometimes
            four, types of dependencies. The first lists what other packages
            need to be available in order to compile and install the package
            in question. The second lists what packages, in addition to those
            on the first list, need to be available in order to run the test
            suites. The third list of dependencies are packages that require
            this package to be built and installed in its final location
            before they are built and installed. In most cases, this is
            because these packages will hard code paths to binaries within
            their scripts. If not built in a certain order, this could result
            in paths of /tools/bin/[binary] being placed inside scripts
            installed to the final system. This is obviously not desirable.
          </p>
          <p>
            The last list of dependencies are optional packages that are not
            addressed in LFS, but could be useful to the user. These packages
            may have additional mandatory or optional dependencies of their
            own. For these dependencies, the recommended practice is to
            install them after completion of the LFS book and then go back
            and rebuild the LFS package. In several cases, re-installation is
            addressed in BLFS.
