Hi there,
I have a multi partitioned architecture for my main system
hda1 = /boot
hda2 = swap
hda3 /
hda5 /usr
hda6 /opt
hda7 /home
hda8 /sources (my source code repository for LFS/BLFS...)
hda8 /var
hda10 /lfs (where I build my lfs - normally mounted to /mnt/lfs)
Once I have built a shiny new version of LFS I then, very carefully,
copy /mnt/lfs/{boot, /, usr, opt, var} over to the appropriate
partitions. Normally I use cp -a.
I use grub and have multiple boot options so I can boot up my pure lfs
on hda10 or boot into the "live system" using hda1 (the boot partition)
and hda3 as /.
Hope this helps.
Alan
