I assume you're using the LiveCD as a host and are wishing to build LFS
onto your prepared partitions. Is it not practical or possible to create
a separate temporary partition for the build, mount it at /mnt/build_dir
and then when the build is done, mount your real partitions and copy
over each directory to the partition you wish it to reside on?
