Hi, Albert. Problem solved ! Well, one of them anyway ...
The trouble was that my chroot'ed environment and the target system were just a bit too minimal. When fish starts up it checks to see what the home directory of the current user is (in fi-utils.c, get_home_directory). Because I had no /etc/nsswitch.conf (set to use files for all) and no /lib/libnss_files.so.2, get_home_directory returned NULL which the strlen in get_config_directory didn't like at all ! I now get a 'fish#' prompt on my target system. Having copied /usr/local/etc/fish/fish/scm over the blank file, /root/.fish/fish.scm (I'm running as root) I dont get any output from bmc-info. Is there anything else I should do to configure freeipmi ?
