| 11 | <title>Mounting the New Partition</title> |

| 12 |  | 
|---|
| 13 | <para>Now that a file system has been created, the partition needs to | 
|---|
| 14 | be made accessible. In order to do this, the partition needs to be | 
|---|
| 15 | mounted at a chosen mount point. For the purposes of this book, it is | 
|---|
| 16 | assumed that the file system is mounted under <filename | 
|---|
| 17 | class="directory">/mnt/clfs</filename>, but the directory choice is up | 
|---|
| 18 | to you.</para> | 
|---|
| 19 |  | 
|---|
| 20 | <para>Choose a mount point and assign it to the <envar>CLFS</envar> | 
|---|
| 21 | environment variable by running:</para> | 
|---|
| 22 |  | 
|---|
| 23 | <screen><userinput>export CLFS=/mnt/clfs</userinput></screen> | 
|---|
| 24 |  | 
|---|
| 25 | <para>Next, create the mount point and mount the CLFS file system by | 
|---|
| 26 | running:</para> | 
|---|
| 27 |  | 
|---|
| 28 | <screen><userinput>mkdir -pv ${CLFS} | 
|---|
| 29 | mount -v /dev/<replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> ${CLFS}</userinput></screen> | 
|---|
| 30 |  | 
|---|
| 31 | <para>Replace <replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> with the designation of | 
|---|
| 32 | the CLFS partition.</para> | 
|---|
| 33 |  | 
|---|
| 34 | <para>If using multiple partitions for CLFS (e.g., one for <filename | 
|---|
| 35 | class="directory">/</filename> and another for <filename | 
|---|
| 36 | class="directory">/usr</filename>), mount them using:</para> | 
|---|
| 37 |  | 
|---|
| 38 | <screen><userinput>mkdir -pv ${CLFS} | 
|---|
| 39 | mount -v /dev/<replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> ${CLFS} | 
|---|
| 40 | mkdir -v ${CLFS}/usr | 
|---|
| 41 | mount -v /dev/<replaceable>[yyy]</replaceable> ${CLFS}/usr</userinput></screen> | 
|---|
| 42 |  | 
|---|
| 43 | <para>Replace <replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> and | 
|---|
| 44 | <replaceable>[yyy]</replaceable> with the appropriate partition | 
|---|
| 45 | names.</para> | 
|---|
| 46 |  | 
|---|
| 47 | <para>Ensure that this new partition is not mounted with permissions | 
|---|
| 48 | that are too restrictive (such as the nosuid, nodev, or noatime options). | 
|---|
| 49 | Run the <command>mount</command> command without any parameters to see | 
|---|
| 50 | what options are set for the mounted CLFS partition. If | 
|---|
| 51 | <option>nosuid</option>, <option>nodev</option>, and/or | 
|---|
| 52 | <option>noatime</option> are set, the partition will need to be | 
|---|
| 53 | remounted.</para> | 
|---|
| 54 |  | 
|---|
| 55 | <para>Now that there is an established place to work, it is time to | 
|---|
| 56 | download the packages.</para> |
