-<title>Installation of Sh-utils</title>
-
-<para>Before Sh-utils is installed, the sh-utils patch file may need to be
-applied. This patch is needed to avoid a conflict of variable names with
-certain Glibc versions (usually glibc-2.1.x) when compiling sh-utils
-statically. It is however safe to apply the patch even if you are running
-a different glibc version. So, if you aren't sure, it's best to apply
-it.</para>

-<para>During the make install stage you will see the following warning:</para>
-
-<blockquote><screen>WARNING: insufficient access; not installing su
-NOTE: to install su, run 'make install-root' as root</screen></blockquote>
-
-<para>You can safely ignore that warning. You need to be logged in as root
-in order to install <filename>su</filename> the way Sh-utils wants to install
-it, which is suid root. Because we don't need <filename>su</filename> during
-Chapter 6, and <filename>su</filename> will be properly installed when we
-re-install Sh-utils in Chapter 6.</para>
