I don't see the need. If one wants to do it themselves for their convenience, then that is up the the user. Using an editor in Chapter 6 is not really required. I've never felt the need. Note that there are other ways to edit, although perhaps not with the same convenience. Typically when in Chapter 6, a user could mount the LFS partition from another shell and edit a text file from there. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
