Did you get an error message? Drew, good to see you're still around. It has been a long time.
I got no error or anything when I tried. Since I posted, I configured and compiled shadow using the book instructions for its installation in Ch. 6, removed the su I had copied earlier, then ran <install -c -o 0755 src/su /tools/bin> I got the same results--nothing. I was still root after I ran <su linux-headers> I'm stumped. I don't know where to look to troubleshoot. Rob Taylor just installed shadow before the linux headers and su worked. He reinstalled shadow in the normal course of things. This causes a few hiccups during Ch. 6--largely with install directories. I found an "su" file that is installed to /etc/pam.d, but since Ch 6 configures shadow not to depend on pam--because it's not installed--I doubt that would have any affect on the situation. Before I give up and install the entire shadow pacakge, I'm probably going to do a DESTDIR install somewhere in /mnt/lfs and try coping the binary to /tools/bin. We'll see what happens.
