Not having a root password is a problem! Remember that when you enter the chroot, you're root - so get out of the chroot, then back in, and you can do what you want. Then you can make a root password by issuing the command 'passwd'. Then it's probably a good idea to change the owner of your sources directory to lfs, so you can unpack etc. stuff there. Hope this helps. John G -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
