6.2. Preparing Virtual Kernel File Systems
Various file systems exported by the kernel are used to communicate to and from the kernel itself. These file systems are virtual in that no disk space is used for them. The content of the file systems resides in memory.
Begin by creating directories onto which the file systems will be mounted:
mkdir -v $LFS/{dev,proc,sys}
6.2.1. Creating Initial Device Nodes
When the kernel boots the system, it requires the presence of a few
device nodes, in particular the console and null
devices. The device nodes will be created on the hard disk so that
they are available before udevd has been started, and
additionally when Linux is started with init=/bin/bash. Create the devices by
running the following commands:
mknod -m 600 $LFS/dev/console c 5 1 mknod -m 666 $LFS/dev/null c 1 3
6.2.2. Mounting and Populating /dev
The recommended method of populating the /dev directory with devices is to mount a virtual
filesystem (such as tmpfs) on the
/dev directory, and allow the devices
to be created dynamically on that virtual filesystem as they are
detected or accessed. Device creation is generally done during the
boot process by Udev. Since this new system does not yet have Udev
and has not yet been booted, it is necessary to mount and populate
/dev manually. This is accomplished
by bind mounting the host system's /dev directory. A bind mount is a special type of
mount that allows you to create a mirror of a directory or mount
point to some other location. Use the following command to achieve
this:
mount -v --bind /dev $LFS/dev
