Or just build as root like you did for the rest of LFS anyway. You can avoid those tricky su's altogether! And I second Jeremy's thought of not installing exim. You really don't need an MTA at this point. You can always rebuild lynx later to add that functionality. The time to rebuild lynx vs. setting up an SMTP server is far in favor of the rebuild. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
