I am working on LFS 6.1 and have completed it through section 6.8. I
am using the LFS LiveCD. I am also working through the more control
and package management stuff. When I tried to switch to the
linux-libc-headers user to install it, I received the following error:
bash: /tools/bin/su: No such file or directory
I have also tried it manually:
root:/# su linux-libc-headers
bash: /tools/bin/su: No such file or directory
The file exists:
root:/# ls -l /tools/bin/su
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20800 Oct 29 22:14 /tools/bin/su
I cannot get su to work in the chroot environment. It works fine
through a different console. So the file exists, su is "found"
because /tools/bin is in $PATH, but it won't execute. I have tried
searching in Google on this but I'm not familiar enough with the
problem to be able to narrow down the search results. I figure I must
have done (not done) something that would cause this, but I have no
idea where to start. I have rebooted the system and redone chapter 6
up through 6.8, but there was no change. Any help would be much
appreciated.
Thanks,

You probably have su linked to host libraries. Try running "ldd
/tools/bin/su" and paste the result here.
Your comment tripped a memory. The more control and pkg mgmt calls for
copying su from the coreutils directory to /tools/bin. I didn't know to
do this until I had deleted the coreutils build directory, so I just
copied su from /bin/su in the non-chroot environment. After I saw your
comment I rebuilt coreutils and copied the new su to /tools/bin.
Everything worked fine after I copied /tools/lib to /lib. Below are the
results of ldd on the new su:
Results from ldd /tools/bin/su:
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0xb7fbb00)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7ed1000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fee000)
Is it just me or should there be a /tools in front of these paths? I
included --prefix=/tools when I ran configure.
