Thanks for that. In the end I installed a copy of FC3 as this is just a test
machine, and I got it to work fine. Looking back I wonder if I had been root
rather than lfs when I created the files, although I cannot see how this
would make a difference.
Just for Info: if you have been root instead of user lfs then a
cat > ~/.bash_profile << "EOF"
creates the file .bash_profile in the /root/ directory instead of
/home/lfs/. So logging in as user lfs there is no .bash_profile which
can be read.
