Installation of Sh-utils
Install Sh-utils by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=$LFS/usr --disable-nls &&
make LDFLAGS=-static &&
make install &&
cd $LFS/usr/bin &&
mv basename date echo false hostname $LFS/bin &&
mv pwd sleep stty test true uname $LFS/bin &&
mv chroot ../sbin
During the make install stage you will see the following warning:
WARNING: insufficient access; not installing su
NOTE: to install su, run 'make install-root' as root
You can safely ignore that warning. You need to be logged in as root
in order to install su the way sh-utils wants to install it, that being
suid root. Because we don't need su during chapter 6, and su will be properly
installed when we re-install sh-utils in chapter 6 anyways, you can just
pretend you didn't see it.
