Since we are at it, my next Wannabe-Guru question: What is the minimum size of the partition needed? In my VMware experiment, I started with 1 GB and gave 100 MB to the swap. During "make bootstrap" (Step 5.4.1) I get "no left in device" error. My df looks like (manually typed) Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail. Use% Mounted /dev/mapper/lfs-cd 1548144 1266128 203376 87% / /dev/sda2 925008 877968 52 100% /mnt/lfs Do I have to start again with a bigger (virtual) HD?
