|
|
|
|
<para>LFS Commands is a tarball containing files which list the installation
|
|
commands for the packages installed in this book.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>These files can be used to quickly find out which commands have
|
|
been changed between the different LFS versions. Download the
|
|
lfs-commands tarball for this book version and the previous book
|
|
version and run a diff on the files. That way it is possible to see which
|
|
packages have updated installation instructions, so any scripts you may
|
|
have can be modified, or you can reinstall a package if you think that
|
|
necessary.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>A side effect is that these files can be used to dump to a shell and
|
|
install the packages, though some files need to be modified (where
|
|
certain settings can't be guessed and depend on user preference or
|
|
system hardware). Keep in mind, please, that these files are not
|
|
thoroughly checked for correctness. There may be bugs in the files (since
|
|
they are manually created at the moment) so do check them and don't
|
|
blindly trust them.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you decide to use the commands to automatically install a
|
|
package and it doesn't work, try reading the book's instructions
|
|
instead before you ask for help on the mailinglist.</para>
