<title>Introduction</title>

|
<para>This chapter shows how to build a minimal Linux system.
|
|
This system will contain just enough tools to start constructing the final
|
|
LFS system in <xref linkend="chapter-building-system"/> and allow a working
|
|
environment with more user convenience than a minimum environment would.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>There are two steps in building this minimal system. The first step
|
|
is to build a new and host-independent toolchain (compiler, assembler,
|
|
linker, libraries, and a few useful utilities). The second step uses this
|
|
toolchain to build the other essential tools.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The files compiled in this chapter will be installed under the
|
|
<filename class="directory">$LFS/tools</filename> directory to keep them
|
|
separate from the files installed in the next chapter and the host
|
|
production directories. Since the packages compiled here are temporary,
|
|
we do not want them to pollute the soon-to-be LFS system.</para>
