PAM errors in liveslak
by dansimon from LinuxQuestions.org on (#58CX9)
Recently I have gotten the following errors when I try to make a liveslak distro with the make_slackware_live.sh script:
-- Configuring the base system.
chpasswd: (user root) pam_chauthtok() failed, error:
Authentication token manipulation error
chpasswd: (line 1, user root) password not changed
*** ./make_slackware_live.sh FAILED at line 1470 ***
I tried to build this on a current Slackware system (as of Sep 21 2020), but since this seems to be a PAM issue, I also tried to build it on a Slackware 14.2 system which doesn't have PAM, but I get the same error.
There are especially two issues that confuse me: 1) Why am I getting PAM errors on 14.2 which doesn't have PAM? and 2) Why am I only getting this error when it tries to build base, building other package sets works just fine...
