No, don't use that hint - it gives bad advice. Just boot from the
livecd, copy source files from /sources to $LFS/sources, and do
everything else by the book.
There was no response. What bad advice does the hint give. Could you
please be more specific.
Dan
1. It suggests not creating the LFS user
2. It says to make scripts to set up the build environment and remount
file systems should you need to reboot. This in itself is not a bad
thing, but judging from what I've seen in the support chat room a lot of
people somehow mess it up.
