Honestly, I don't think you missed anything. That sounds awfully familiar
to a problem that I didn't find a solution to. I think Bruce found the
problem on my system originally - I'm in the process of rebuilding it for
some updates... so I can take a crack at fixing it once I get to having to
build PAM. The other thing I can *suggest* is making sure that you have
your VFSes mounted (See "Preparing the Virtual Kernel File Systems" in LFS)
before going into chroot.

Can someone on a sysvinit system try it and see if they are having a
similar problem please? I know my problem used to exist over there too, but
I don't know if it does anymore.

I seem to remember having issues with cracklib installed as well.
