Well done! You have finished installing your LFS system. It may have
|
|
|
|
been a long process but it was well worth it. We wish you a lot of fun
|
|
|
|
with your new shiny custom built Linux system.

Now would be a good time to strip all debug symbols from the binaries on your
|
|
|
|
LFS system. If you are not a programmer and don't plan on debugging your
|
|
|
|
software, then you will be happy to know that you can reclaim a few tens of megs
|
|
|
|
by removing debug symbols. This process causes no inconvenience other than not
|
|
|
|
being able to debug the software fully anymore, which is not an issue if you
|
|
|
|
don't know how to debug. You can remove the symbols by executing the following
|
|
|
|
command:

If you plan to ever upgrade to a newer LFS version in the future it
|
|
|
|
will be a good idea to create the /etc/lfs-&version; file. By having
|
|
|
|
this file it is very easy for you (and for us if you are going to ask
|
|
|
|
for help with something at some point) to find out which LFS version
|
|
|
|
you have installed on your system. This can just be a null-byte file by

If you are wondering: "Well, where to go now?" you'll be glad to hear that
|
|
|
|
someone has written an <ulink
|
|
|
|
url="http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-hints/Afterlfs.txt">LFS-Hint</ulink>
|
|
|
|
on that subject. On a same note, if you are not only newbie to LFS, but also

|
|
newbie to Linux in general, you may find the <ulink
