It does this by extracting the necessary commands and information +straight from the LFS book's XML source. It then creates a Makefile that +acts as the automation control of the commands to be run. Finally, if you have +specified it to do so, and have the necessary packages available (jhalfs can +download them if you need it to), it can begin and log the build process. + +There are several options that jhalfs can employ, and that may be useful to +your particular needs. For a full list run: + +jhalfs --help + +Some variables of the build can be adjusted to fit your particular needs and +system. The file 'jhalfs.conf' can be used to specify certain variables of the +jhalfs build system. For more information, read the 'jhalfs.conf' file as it +should be self-explanatory. + +For help, questions, or to report a bug, please email the alfs-discuss mailing +list: +alfs-discuss AT linuxfromscratch DOT org
