Hi folks,

Continued on "6.3. Entering the Chroot Environment"
http://www.sg.linuxfromscratch.org/l...06/chroot.html

Performed following steps;

# mount /mnt/lfs
# export LFS=/mnt/lfs
# mkdir -p $LFS/{proc,sys}
# mount -t proc proc $LFS/proc
# mount -t sysfs sysfs $LFS/sys
# mount -f -t devpts -o gid=4,mode=620 devpts $LFS/dev/pts
all went through without problem

# chroot "$LFS" /tools/bin/env -i HOME=/root TERM="$TERM" PS1='\u:\w\$ ' PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/tools/bin /tools/bin/bash --login +hPlease advise how to proceed. Whether enter a name here? What is it for?

TIA

That is just the bash prompt and is perfectly normal to not display a name since your not setting any type of .bash_profile setup while using chroot, etc.

Have you ever read this LFS page ???

Hi freegianghu,

Sorry for my misunderstanding. I'm following
http://www.sg.linuxfromscratch.org/l...06/chroot.html

to proceed.

Because the command prompt changed from

[root@localhost ~]#
to
I have no name!:/#

I hesitated to continue whether it needed to enter a name or just ignoring it to continue on
6.4. Changing Ownership
http://www.sg.linuxfromscratch.org/l...gingowner.html

I'm proceeding cautiously worrying if one step going wrong I have to start from the beginning.

Hello,

On my case, I did chmod /etc/passswd by command:

after sign out and sign in, I see the message "I have no name".

Something to share

Hi,
You do realise you just posted in a thread that is 6 years old????

About your answer: Did you read the full thread?

This message (I have no name!) is normal at this point and no actions have to be done! See this chapter: 6.4. Entering the Chroot Environment. This is true for LFS version 6.3 (discussed in this thread) and all the versions up to the current 6.8

Thanks druuna for your reply. It's my mistake

Hi phanthaihuan,
Don't worry about this, no real harm was done. Readers that stumble upon this thread will get the correct idea

I think anyone needs to mark this thread as solved...
