According to the final output of jhalfs, I have just a few steps to finish before I've a working system.
One of these steps is to change the root password after chroot'ing into the newly built system. When I execute 'passwd', the entire interaction of the program is skipped. It's like I'm using 'yes' or something. I can't change the password because of it. How can I fix that? Second, and unrelated to the aforementioned steps, when I use 'man', the output is truncated because of an early termination of error number 256 resulting from: /usr/bin/zsoelim /usr/share/man/man8/ip.8 | /usr/bin/tbl | /usr/bin/nroff -mandoc -Tlatin1 | /usr/bin/less -s I discovered this while attempting 'man passwd' to see if there was a switch that I could force passwd to accept a password at the command line. There are so many programs in that command line that I don't know which one could be causing the error. Individually, each works, and some man pages (groff, zsoelim) display without errors. Even 'man ls' gives the above error. Ideas? -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
