I guess the issue is over the 'purity', for want of a better word, of the base LFS installation - having everything done strictly by the book to the point of booting into the new system before doing anything outside of the LFS book. Most of us, it appears, don't consider it particularly important at all. I know I don't - for example, I always include PAM and cracklib from BLFS as part of the initial installation instead of re-installing Shadow with them later. So installing a few extra packages before booting up the new system just isn't considered a big deal. Simon.
