Hi Andrew,

Tks for your advice.


/tools should be a symbolic link
pointing at /mnt/lfs/tools


[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ls -al /tools
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 15 Jun 28 17:06 /tools ->
//mnt/lfs/tools

It is.

Is this accurate? It says "/tools" is pointing to "//mnt/lfs/tools". That should be "/mnt/lfs/tools" - there should only be one slash at the beginning. Also, if you have anything in /tools not owned by lfs, then don't just change permissions - it's much better just to remove it all and start over.


The user lfs should own the folder /mnt/lfs/tools
and so should, by definition, have write permission
in /tools/lib


[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ls -al /mnt/lfs/tools/

drwxr-xr-x   2 lfs  lfs  4096 Jul 21 13:03 var

Shall I manually change;
drwxr-xr-x  13 lfs  root 4096 Jul 22 15:36 .
drwxr-xr-x   6 root root 4096 Jul 21 22:23 ..

with
# chmod -R 777 /mnt/lfs/tools

TIA
