Not really, as bruce said he builds openssl/openssh in the chroot, I do also along with a whole system sometimes. openssh requires urandom and/or random in /dev for creating the keys. But you are half right because by the time anyone would get this far they *should* have already installed the grub mbr which requires the proper nodes in /dev such as [h,s]d[a-z]#. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
