I have just completed two builds of lfs svn via jhalfs-2.2 and cannot set the root password after entering the chroot env. Entering 'passwd root' runs through the entire process but does not stop to let me enter a password.
root:/# passwd root Changing password for root Enter the new password (minimum of 5, maximum of 127 characters) Please use a combination of upper and lower case letters and numbers. Bad password: too short. Warning: weak password (enter it again to use it anyway). Password changed. root:/# I have found two previous posts with the same problem. One suggested 'echo "root:PASSWORD" |chpasswd' which is only a workaround at best and the other said he found the problem but didn't post the solution.
