We have a problem. The above change works for su -c "make install", but fails for sudo "make install" with sudo: make install: command not found The su variation fails without the quotes, so we need to rework this. Personally, I prefer sudo, but can understand that some will want to use su. The only solution I can come up with is to create a bash function something like: as_root() { if [ -x /usr/bin/sudo ]; then sudo $* else su -c \\"$*\\" fi } I can't say I like it, but it works. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
