Yes, I did pwconv, groconv and passwd root. > While you're in chroot, make sure /etc/passwd contains this line: > root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash Yes, I does contain that line. > And check the /etc/shadow file too.

I also created a user while in chroot and saw its reference at /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. I also want to inform this( if its related or not): while booting up the lfs is prompting me to enter the run level Enter Run Level: I enter 3 and it proceeds and then comes this login problem. I am willing to try further suggestions.
