Hello all,
I started to work on my LFS system a few days ago and was impressed with everything going smoothly. However, I think I might have done something wrong. I thought I had followed the instructions in the book to the letter, but maybe someone can point me in the right direction?
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 as a host system, LFS version 6.6, and am only somewhat new to Linux. If I can put anything else here that would help my question be answered, please let me know.
My problem is this: I have gotten all the way to section 5.4, and it's time to build Binutils-2.20. I am executing these commands as lfs, as specified. The first command is
Code:
mkdir -v ../binutils-build
and when I try it, it says permission denied. I try
Code:
sudo mkdir -v ../binutils-build
and enter my password when prompted, but then I get the error message "lfs is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported."
Where could I have gone wrong? I'm very sure I followed the instructions in the book to the letter. If additional details are needed, please let me know, and thanks in advance for any help, it is much appreciated!
