I think you will be on safer ground if you let us know what the original error message was, and hopefully we can provide a better fix. Which host distribution are you using, and how *exactly* does your method differ from what is in the book (specifically, section 4.3 where root creates the user and uses 'su - lfs' ? Please note: you seem to be using sudo - I can't offer any advice on that, but I know other people use it so it should be possible to find something that works. ĸen -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
