I started over. I am now at the section where we remove the 'I have no name!' prompt. The instructions are to start a new shell. Well.... I guess that is okay but the way I am doing this is: I have two computers. One I am building LFS on and the other I am building LFS from via ssh. SO I start a new shell and ssh into the LFS computer. Then I do the steps in 6.2.2 and 6.2.3 but my user is still th user I ssh(ed) with. I don't know what to say. I guess I could just not start the new shell and then su when I need to issue a command as root. I hope this is enough info to tell me what to do. :-)~MIKE~(-:
