Linux from scratch

[Paul Mooring]

It's been a while since I did an LFS install, but I assume you have a
partition mounted on `/mnt/lfs`.  If that's the case the easiest thing is
to recreate the filesystem.  Imagine mount shows something like:

  /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/lfs type ext4 (rw)

You would un mount the filesystem:

  umount /mnt/lfs

Re-create the filesystem

  mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1

and remount it

  mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/lfs

Then you should have an empty filesystem waiting for you.
