No.  But I logged in again with su - hendrik, as instructed in the
instructions.

hendrik at lovesong:~$ sb-conf rs mistral-armel /scratchbox/packages/mistral-armel-rootstrap.tgz
ERROR: You don't have a Scratchbox user account!
hendrik at lovesong:~$ su - hendrik
Password: 
hendrik at lovesong:~$ sb-conf rs mistral-armel /scratchbox/packages/mistral-armel-rootstrap.tgz
ERROR: You don't have a Scratchbox user account!
hendrik at lovesong:~$ 

But in case it might help, I'll log out, shut down X, log in again
through gdm, and try again, after I post this message.
