Don't run febootstrap as root.
I'm a little confused about that. I understand the concept of
fakeroot and fakechroot but I must be missing a piece of the
puzzle. I want to build up a Fedora install that I will
eventually boot into. At that point root should own the files.
How does this work if I run febootstrap as a normal user?
I did attempt to run febootstrap as myself, but got the same
error shown above.
You don't say what version of febootstrap you are using or what
host
you're using it from.
I'm running on Ubuntu Lucid with the following versions:
febootstrap 2.1-4
fakechroot 2.9-1.1
fakeroot 1.14.4-1ubuntu1
yum 3.2.25-1ubuntu2
Should I try again from git? Alternatively I'll just switch to
installing a VM (since eventually this will be that) but I'm
a longtime user of debootstrap so I'm pretty happy to find
febootstrap, assuming it will work for me!
Thanks,
