[Clfs-dev] [ book question ]

[David Broadfoot]

Adrian,

THe ${CLFS} is only needed when U are building outside the chroot. 
${CLFS} is needed because it really simplifies building, instead of 
typeing /mnt/clfs on every package, and it also  allows for building 
anywhere on the host system. When U enter the chroot, U are changing the 
root from your host's root to ${CLFS}. After this, the variable is no 
longer needed.....

chroot "${CLFS}" /tools/bin/env -i \
    HOME=/root TERM="${TERM}" PS1='\u:\w\$ ' \
    PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/tools/bin \
    /tools/bin/bash --login +h


In the above command, it changes the current shell's root to ${CLFS}, 
cleans the env so that there is no host variables, and sets the few 
needed ones.


Hope this helps,

Dave
