okay..... here is the deal. I'm trying to download the packages  to $LFS/sources. the problem I am having is that I can't create the directory as <user>. If I create it as root I won't be able to access the directory as <user>. Do I create the directory as root and then chown <user>?

Coming from you, this is a rather scary statement...   ;-)

Please describe what you mean by:
'how I inserted the wget-list or the md5sums list into the virtual.'
Once you open a terminal to the 'virtual', there is no 'virtual' anymore.
It is just a terminal...

Yes, I remembered that much.Myu problem is that I can't remember how I
inserted the wget-list or the md5sums list into the virtual. unless.....
let me try something.
I remembered! I used pico. It was weird. It wasn't accepting when I tried
to save it with the '$LFS/sources' Could it be because  I was trying to
use
$LFS from within pico?

Mike, on the virtual as root:
passwd (I mostly use vv)
apt-get install ssh
when done, from the host:
ssh root@${VIRTUAL}
Now you work from 'your box' over an SSH shell.
YMMV...

PS: This will only work if the interface is 'bridged', the virtual
'NAT(s)' by default.

 Michael,

This sounds like a path/permissions issue in your terminal shell.
$ sudo locate ifconfig
$ sudo ifconfig
$ sudo su -
$ su -
Call me to discuss.

I need to find the ip of the virtual debian machine. I tried
ipconfig.
Command not found. I tried ifconfig. Command not found. Well I
thought
one
of those commands was right!  Then I tried apt-get: unable to locate
package. I remember there was another command that would give me the
info I
want. Please, what is it?
