That's what I did, but I had to download it on another computer, burn it
to a CD, and get it off the CD on my LFS system.
Had I had the foresight to get wget before rebooting into LFS once I'd
finished the install, I'd have used curl on the liveCD to get the
additional packages. However, while curl is available on the CD as a
binary, there exists no source for it.
It's sort of one of the shortcomings of LFS. You're missing some key
components that you'd really want. A DHCP client is critical for me.
But that's the whole point. What you get when you finish LFS is just
supposed to be a barebones development system so you can go off and do
whatever you want with it.
