Regards,
Jeremy.
I think that you have mis-understood William's email. From his email, I
gather that he means that the commands set in 1 through 3 should be
stated as 'Compulsory', ie if not used then you have a good chance of
making your host distro into a LFS cross host hybrid that (depending on
the host and version of LFS) is unusable.
But, as you said, Jeremy, Follow Book, Book Good... Deviating can cause
major hassles (even just a mistyped command or incorrect package version).
I think as Linux becomes more mainstream, more people are going to try
LFS for the first time and some people don't know (or understand or even
don't realise) that a recommendation in the LFS book is something that
you should do to prevent troubles occurring down the line.
