I'm confused. The Fedora stuff exists ONLY on /dev/sda. As far as LFS is 
concerned, it doesn't exist until I mount /dev/sda1 (or sda2), and I can call 
the mount point whatever I want, no? So in the LFS /etc/fstab I could have 
"/dev/sda1 /fedora ..." or "/dev/sda1 /mnt/fedora ..." or anything else I 
please. Is that not correct?
