I just tried to automating mounting while loggin in without any extra typing; However, I'll use your advise instead, thanks!
What about second idea? i.e. defining .bashrc for user root like lfs user to export $LFS variable. The book does not talk about repeating the steps, it may consider we will learn this from previous sections.
