Bruce, I try not to theorise these days - except when looking at problems. I _do_ recall reading some posts, perhaps on blfs-support, where people had problems in virtual machines. I did say "(if any)" - I'm happy to take your assurance that none are needed, but no closer to understanding what has caused the OP's problem (and still not interested in using a virtual machine). ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
