I am using Linux from Scratch 7.10.
Host system is Ubuntu 16.04.
After a failed first attempt I have decided to go back to retry.
In Chapter 3.1 in noticed it states "To create this directory, execute
the following command, as user root, before starting the download session"
mkdir -v $LFS/sources.
My question is - do I logout and login as root (have set up root as
ubuntu does not allow access to root automatically) and so having to
setup $LFS and mount the drive again or do I use Sudo or something else?
Also is it only that command and log back in as my usual user and reset
LFS and mount again or do I use root from then on.
Sorry I could not find this question in the mailing list if it is there.
Maybe not using the correct search wording.
Thanks
