Hello As i said, i am using a chroot'd debian, build with debootstrap.
By mounting /dev/shm, uninstalling and reinstalling mysql-server-5.0, i finally got a root user. You may check that all required filesystems (/proc /dev /dev/pts /sys /dev/shm /tmp) are mounted, with proper permissions. Hope this helps Regards -- Thomas Constans openDoor 06 23 37 87 85 09 51 73 91 75 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
