<p>Hi,<br>
Made some progress(I hope so) after receiving your suggestions.(I have pasted whatever problem I was having below in case someone's reading it for the first time)</p>
<p><font face="times new roman">I logged in as 'muser' and then in the terminal window I typed 'su' and when asked for the password,I entered the system password which I used while logging in.</font></p>
<p><font face="times new roman">Then,navigated to /scratchbox and then typed <font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ccffcc">
/scratchbox/sbin/sbox_ctl start</font></font></p>
<p><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ccffcc" face="times new roman"><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff">The message displayed is--</font></font></p>
<p><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ccffcc" face="times new roman">Starting scratchbox:- binfmt_misc,mount</font></p>
<p><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" face="times new roman">[root@....]: $</font></p>
<p><font face="times new roman"></font> </p>
<p><font face="times new roman">If I login as 'root' and after navigating to /scratchbox type /scrtachbox/sbin/sbox_ctl start,I get the same message as above.</font></p>
<p><font face="times new roman"></font> </p>
<p><font face="times new roman">so,is that it(is scratchbox installed now)? or what I am thinking as improvement is actually some message about missing components or something worse :)</font></p>
<p><font face="times new roman"></font> </p>
<p><font face="times new roman">I haven't yet extracted the devkits and toolchains till now.I guess, if things are ok,all I have to do is extract them into the scratchbox folder in '/'.</font></p>
<p><font face="times new roman">Please guide me.</font></p>
<p><font face="times new roman">Thanks for all the advice.</font></p>
<p><font face="times new roman">regards,Avi</font></p>
<p> </p>

This is what I had done(when I got an error message :<font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ccffcc">Scratchbox is not properly setup)<br>
</font> 1. Extracted scratchbox-core-1.0.8-i386.tar.tar to '/' (the folder is saved by the name 'scratchbox' in '/')<br>
2.Extracted contents of scratchbox-libs-1.0.8-i386.tar.tar to 'scratchbox' (the folder in '/')
<br>
3. in Terminal:<br>
$cd /scratchbox<br>
$/scratchbox/run_me_first.sh<br>
Do you want to use sudo mode?[yes/no] (no) :- no<br>
Give the name of the scratchbox group(sbox):- (I didn't enter any name,clicked 'enter')<br>
The group 'sbox' doesn't exist.Would you like to create the group 'sbox'? [yes/no] (yes) :- yes<br>
Creating group 'sbox'<br>
Stopping scratchbox:umount,binfmt_misc<br>
Starting scratchbox:binfmt_misc,mount<br>
Now you should add one or more users with /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_adduser<br>
$/scratchbox/sbin/sbox_adduser muser<br>
Add user 'muser' to group 'sbox'?[yes/no] (yes):-yes<br>
Scratchbox user account for 'muser' added.<br>
After completing this stage,I rebooted the system and logged in as 'muser'<br>
I navigated to /scratchbox and then typed 'groups' in the terminal window <br>
and, I was shown the group 'sbox' as the documentation says.<br>
But,when I type /scratchbox/login in the terminal window,I get the message -<br>
ERROR:Scratchbox not set up properly.<br>
(If i login as 'root' after rebooting and maneouvre to /scratchbox,I can't see the group 'sbox' when I type 'groups' in the terminal window)</p>

Reading and understanding "man sudo" might be helpful.<br>
<br>
Other option: Run "su", enter your root password, go to your scratchbox<br>
directory, run the command itself (without sudo involved).<br>
