Hello,

In the second "Important" box in section 5.3, item 3 says that I should
use tar to extract the packages in /mnt/lfs/sources. Am I reading this
right? There are 27 .tar.gz files, 11 .tar.bz2 files and 32 tar.xz
packages. Extracting each one from the command line seems error prone. I
am thinking about creating a script that would extract each package. Is
this a good approach?


No, you should not attempt any kind of scripting until you've built LFS successfully at least once. I'm not sure why you would say it's "error prone" to extract from command line.
