<title>How to download the software</title>

<para>
|
|
Throughout this document I will assume that you have stored all the
|
|
packages you have downloaded somewhere in $LFS/usr/src.

<para>

|
I use the convention of having a $LFS/usr/src/sources directory.
|
|
Under sources you'll find the directory 0-9 and the directories a
|
|
through z. A package as sysvinit-2.78.tar.gz is stored under
|
|
$LFS/usr/src/sources/s/ A package as bash-2.04.tar.gz is stored under
|
|
$LFS/usr/src/sources/b/ and so forth. You don't have to follow this
|
|
convention of course, I was just giving an example. It's better to keep
|
|
the packages out of $LFS/usr/src and move them to a subdirectory, so
|
|
we'll have a clean $LFS/usr/src directory in which we will unpack the
|
|
packages and work with them.
|
|
</para>

<para>
|
|
The next chapter contains the list of all the packages you need to download,
|
|
but the partition that is going to contain our LFS system isn't created yet.
|
|
Therefore, store the files temporarily somewhere where you want and remember
|
|
to copy them to $LFS/usr/src/ when you have finished the chapter in which
|
|
you prepare a new partition (chapter 4).
