Sure, so use sudo to create the user lfs, format and mount the
partition, create the folders /mnt/lfs/sources and /mnt/lfs/tools,
chown then so they are owned by lfs and create the /tools
=> /mnt/lfs/tools symlink

Can I change the directory and file ownership to "lfs" with a chown, or
is the fact that the programs were compiled as
"root" have a detrimental effect?
chown -R lfs /mnt/lfs/{sources,tools} may work, I don't know.
The detrimental effect of compiling as root is that root can install
files anywhere and so may damage your host system.

Code: chown -R
worked. I only had to do this for the /tools directory, I checked a
number of
directories 3 and 4 levels deep, and all were owned by lfs.
The /mnt/lfs was all setup per instructions in the book.
I am now to 5.10.1 and have applied the gcc-startfiles patch, and it was
successful.
I am now at unpacking, configuring && make && make installing the three
files
gmp, mpfr, and mpc.
My question is, where are these installed? My first guess would be in
/mnt/lfs/tools/{bin,lib}, would be be correct?
As this is for pass2, they cannot be in the /tools directory, as it
would not be available in the chrooted environment.
Some info on this would be a great help for me.
Thanks
