<para>Throughout this document, we will assume that all the
packages that were downloaded are placed somewhere in $LFS/usr/src.</para>
<para>A convention you could use is having a $LFS/usr/src/sources directory.
Under sources, you can create the directory 0-9 and the directories a
through z. A package like sysvinit-&sysvinit-version;.tar.bz2 is stored under
$LFS/usr/src/sources/s/. A package like bash-&bash-version;.tar.bz2 is stored
under $LFS/usr/src/sources/b/, and so forth.</para>
<para>While it doesn't matter at all where you save the downloaded
packages, we recommend storing it at least on the LFS partition. This just
makes sense because you would still have access to those files when you boot
into the LFS system. $LFS/usr/src is just a logical place to store source
code, but by no means a requirement. You may even want to create a
subdirectory under $LFS/usr/src for tarball storage. That way you can
seperate tarballs from temporary build directories, but again that's up
to you.</para>
<para>The next chapter contains the list of all the packages that need to be
downloaded, but the partition that is going to contain our LFS system isn't
created yet. Therefore, you should store the files somewhere else and later
on move them to $LFS/usr/src/ when the chapter in which the new partition is
prepared has been finished.</para>
<para>The next chapter contains a list of all the packages that need to be
downloaded. The LFS partition isn't created yet, so you can't store it
there yet. Just save it elsewhere for now, and when the LFS partition is
created, move them over.</para>
