Whether jumping to following section; 3. Packages and Patches http://www.sg.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/6.0/chapter03/chapter03.html to run # mkdir /mnt/$LFS/sources # chmod a+wt /mnt/$LFS/sources (what is the flag'a+wt'? Is it timestamp?) and download all files on 3.2. All Packages http://www.sg.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/6.0/chapter03/packages.html http://www.sg.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/6.0/chapter03/patches.html to /mnt/$LFS/sources But I could not find the directory /mnt/$LFS I found # cd /mnt/LFS # ls -al total 24 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 27 07:40 . drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Jun 27 07:39 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 27 07:40 usr AND # cd /mnt/LFS/$LFS # ls -al total 24 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 27 07:40 . drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Jun 27 07:39 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 27 07:40 usr They refer to the same directory. '$LFS' seems to be an invisible directory. TIA B.R.
