I have read it carefully and I think this is where I have my
problem. I understand I need to enter the source directory but
where to put the source directory is the question. In sections
5.4 and 5.5 I cp'd the source directories to the -build
directories and unpacked them there and did the configure. In
section 5.7 it is not clear to me into which $LFS directory I
should cp the source. Section 5.l implies it is the $LFS/tools
directory but to me this is not clear. This is where I need the
clarification. Any clarification is appreciated.
It doesn't really matter where you put the sources. However they should
certainly be somewhere on $LFS so that they will available after you
chroot. Also, the book *does* give a specific recommendation -
$LFS/sources. Please look at section 3.1.
