<title>Building LFS in Stages</title>
|
|

|
<para>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.</para>
