Hallo all,
some bg information for ur reference:
I am trying to make lfs on my existing slackware-10.2,
kernel 2.6.14.3
I am following the hint for making lfs on existing
partition.. actually upto the point where I m right
now this hint makes no difference..
now I am in ch-6, installing shadow. I could install
it without a problem but when configuring
pwconv went well but in grpconv my box stuck- hanged
!! this happened many times and the command did not
end ... what should i do ?
I have a 3.0Gz, 1GB ram pc with 2GB for swap..for
info... I am runnign KDE on slackware while making lfs
..should I run only cli ? is this very cpu intensive
task or I am missing some libraries ?
I'm not familiar with the hint, but the first question to ask is: do
you really need to run grpconv ? I never use group passwords, so the
only reason I run grpconv is to test the instructions in the development
book.
Normally, there aren't a lot of groups so this is definitely not a cpu
intensive operation. Possibly, it has managed to link against something
from the host system, such as PAM. Check what ldd say about grpconv.
You could also try running 'top' in a konsole, to see if anything
appears to be happening.
