You have not committed the changes. If you would please do that, I'd like to see everything at once. If we need to make a change, that's OK. Right now, from your discussion, I lean toward leaving the user/group creation in the book. As the packages mature, we should dreconsider, but I don't want to remove the user/group just to have to put them back later. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
