All source packages and patches should be within $LFS/sources, not $LFS or $LFS/tools. 3. Before you begin make sure you are in the source directory with cd $LFS/sources 4. Unpack the source package using tar tar -xvf package.tar.* 5. Change into the created package cd package 6. Follow all instructions on the page in order 7. After completing the page, change back into the source directory 8. Remove the package's source directory rm -rvf package 8b.
