Installation of Sh-utils
Install Sh-utils by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=$LFS/usr \
--disable-nls &&
make LDFLAGS=-static &&
make install &&
mv $LFS/usr/bin/{basename,date,echo,false,hostname} $LFS/bin &&
mv $LFS/usr/bin/{pwd,sleep,stty,test,true,uname} $LFS/bin &&
mv $LFS/usr/bin/chroot $LFS/usr/sbin
During the make install stage you will see the following warning:
WARNING: insufficient access; not installing su
NOTE: to install su, run 'make install-root' as root
You can safely ignore that warning. You need to be logged in as root
in order to install su the way sh-utils wants to install it, that being
suid root. Because we don't need su during chapter 6, and su will be properly
installed when we re-install sh-utils in chapter 6 anyways, you can just
pretend you didn't see it.
