Yep, I ran into the same issue. Testing suggested that the /etc/passwd entry
for users you want to `su' to need a home dir. I therefore changed the

Have you updated your scripts to reflect the SVN upgrade of coreutils
(http://websvn.linuxfromscratch.org/diff.php?repname=LFS&path=%2Ftrunk%2FBOOK%2Fchapter06%2Fcoreutils.xml&rev=7098&sc=0
should give you a decent overview of what's needed by the new version)?

Doh, my local copy of the book includes that, but everybody already
knows I can't read (or, more accurately, I can't spot differences in
text if I think it matches). Thanks.
