Here's another issue that is new for me with this build:
After creating a new user using useradd -m and creating a password for
the new user, when I try to login, I get this message:
Unable to cd to '/home/<new user>'
Yet a cd /home/<new user> works fine. I've tried with and without
mounting a volume on /home, at the system login prompt and using su.
Same message.
Have any of you seen this before? Any ideas? This effectively makes my
new LFS 7.8 unusable.
No problem here:
root:/# useradd -m -s /bin/bash -c "Linux From Scratch" lfs
root:/# passwd lfs
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: password updated successfully
root:/# su - lfs
-su-4.3$ pwd
/home/lfs
What comes to my mind: What are the permissions and owner of your
/home/<new user> ?
Thanks!
Roger
