Hi,

I have tryed to build alfs in VM running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and 22.04 LTS. 
I'm getting following Permission denied.

I have just entered sudo authorisation and jhalfs and sources 
directories have been created and then...

Are you happy with these optimization settings? yes/no (no): yes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[sudo] password for lfs:
mkdir: cannot create directory '/lfs/jhalfs/logs': Permission denied

<jhalfs> exit
make: *** [Makefile:11: all] Error 1
lfs@draak:~/jhalfs$

lfs@draak:~/jhalfs$ ls -all /lfs
total 16
drwxrwxrwx  4 lfs  lfs  4096 Jun 14 08:47 .
drwxr-xr-x 23 lfs  lfs  4096 Jun 14 07:36 ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Jun 14 08:47 jhalfs
drwxrwxrwt  2 root root 4096 Jun 14 08:47 sources
lfs@draak:~/jhalfs$

The user lfs have as I believe all neccesary rights. See attached file 
for jhalfs configuration and somme additional info.

The problem appears not to be limited to user lfs.

I'm guesing that script at that point drops sudo authorisation and tries 
to make subdirectory in jhalfs as user lfs who have no rights to write 
in directory owned by root.

Any suggestion wil be appreciated.

Dragan
