I try to do *mkdir -pv $LFS* it says *"permission denied". *So I
decided to do it where I have some read-write permissions. If I stick
strictly to the book, I would be stuck even before since *sudo* is not
stated on the book, at least in these commands, I don't know if
further. So, what I can guess from all your answers is to stick
strictly to the book and in some cases type *sudo* before the command
if needed, right?? Doing this is the only way I can think of getting
past this point. Go on typing *sudo* when required by permissions or
whatever, althought it isn't said so on the book. Am I wrong?

No, that is right.  I don't mean to be rude or insensitive--I still
remember being a relative newbie to *nix looking up at "mountain" I
wanted to climb.  The thing is, doing a Linux/GNU system from scratch
isn't a job for newbies.  I played around with a RHL-6.1 Publisher's
Edition for a year "to get myself in shape for the climb."  There is a
certain level of experience to be expected--after all, we're playing
down in the guts of the system!  "Stuff happens!"  It's not unreasonable
for the book to expect the "user" to know mount, and others, are
priveleged commands.  sudo isn't required!  IMO, if one expects to
install LFS, one should be able to use the root account, and do so
safely.  I've never installed sudo on any of my systems.

That said, 1) LFS user support is second to none!  (I've asked questions
in other support forums where nobody responds.)  2) Once one has learned
intermediate level sysadmin skills, installing and configuring a (B)LFS
system is a great escalator up the mountain.

Oh ok. I will take note. I am nothing but grateful to all of you, who take your time to help us to improve. Anyways, I have gone past the 2.7 and I think we could all forget this if you don't mind. I would like to recall my first message, in which bottom I simply asked if using sudo will have any impact further in the book and I have already been answered enough.

Thanks again to all of you, really.
