I think you are missing Randy's point. He removed more than what the book says to remove and the space recovered was significantly less than what the book says. Since the minimum space needed for LFS is on the order of 1.3G and then it is not really large enough for many of the BLFS packages, most users will have a lfs partition much larger than the minimum. Is the section on stripping in Chapter 5 really necessary? Perhaps it should be removed. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
