| 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>
