Just a lvl 28 guy from Finland. Full-stack web developer and Scrum Master by trade, but actually more into server-side programming, networking, and sysadmin stuff.
During the summer, I love trekking, camping, and going on long hiking adventures. Also somewhat of an avgeek and a huge Lego fanatic.
You can do it from a live cd/usb just fine, but you’ll need to repeat some preparation steps (basically chapter 2 of the book) every time you boot the host.
The way I did was to install the host (I chose Debian) on a small partition on the disk, leaving most of the space for the LFS partition. Once the (B)LFS build was complete enough that I didn’t need the host anymore, I just removed its partition and expanded the LFS partition into the now unallocated space.

That’s cool. I’m sorry if it came across like I was criticizing your live stream, that wasn’t my intention. I just wanted to add the link to the actual event since it was missing from your post.
And now that you mention it, it is cool to have the whole event (or at least most of it) available as a VOD, if someone wants to put together more timelapses for example.
Umm… Why would anyone watch the live stream as they can literally watch it live at https://canvas.fediverse.events/
You can absolutely do that, but I would highly recommend setting up the laptop for SSH access. That way, you can work on your LFS from your main desktop, which will probably be much more comfortable, will allow you to easily copy and paste from the book and so forth.
