The discussion isn't about whether you *should* build as a different user or not, but how to switch users while automating. Since the LFS book suggests that you build as 'lfs' in the first section, and you *have* to chroot in the second, knowing how to automate those two tasks becomes important if you're scripting. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
