Hey everyone, A few years back on an older machine I was performing an experiment that unfortunately was devoured by the big /dev/null in the sky. This was due to the untimely demise of the hard drive, processor and motherboard as the power supply basically blew up.
Anywho, the test was to find out if chapter 6 packages were required to be built as root as the book details it. I'm considering trying this again but I'm not entirely sure if I have the time to deviate that much from the book without losing sight of my own projects at hand. Has anyone tried this? If so, what degree of success did it produce? I tend to avoid building as root all the time. I mean aside from the instructions in chapter 6. I hope to try a rootless chapter 6 build again but I figured this would be the best place to find out if others had tried. I've always figured there must be a reason that root does all the labor here.
