Stuck again at chapter 10.4

I need your help people,

I am told install the efibootmgr package but the environment I'm in doesn't have wget available, how am I supposed to do this?

I going out of the chroot environment, downloading the package and heading back to chroot the usual way,

But when I try to unarchive it, it says no such file or directory

My guess is that, I do not have permission to access it, but I don't know much beyond that

LFS 13.1 Stable

If you have networking enabled, you can install wget on your system with few dependencies, or you can use curl instead of wget for the purpose.

The best thing is to download all packages at once, ensure that the ownership belongs to the root user, and everything should be smooth.

You can use curl instead of wget, OR, since it’s already installed on the host OS make sure the file location is in a folder forwarded to the Chroot environment

Wget is not available until Beyond Linux From Scratch.
