- <para>
 
- Let's create the directory tree on the LFS partition based on the FHS
 
- standard, which can be found at <ulink
 
- url="http://www.pathname.com/fhs/">http://www.pathname.com/fhs/</ulink>.
 
- Issuing the following commands will create a default directory layout:

- <para>
 
- Normally, directories are created with permission mode 755, which isn't
 
- desired for all directories. The first change is a mode 0750 for the 
 
- $LFS/root directory. This is to make sure that not just everybody can 
 
- enter the /root directory (the same a user would do with /home/username 
 
- directories). The second change is a mode 1777 for the tmp 
 
- directories. This way, any user can write data to the /tmp or /var/tmp 
 
- directory but cannot remove another user's files (the latter is caused 
 
- by the so-called "sticky bit" - bit 1 of the 1777 bit mask).
 
- </para>
 
- <blockquote><literallayout>
 
- 	<userinput>cd $LFS &&</userinput>
 
- 	<userinput>chmod 0750 root &&</userinput>
 
- 	<userinput>chmod 1777 tmp var/tmp</userinput>
 
- </literallayout></blockquote>
 
- <para>
 
- Now that the directories are created, copy the source files that were
 
- downloaded in chapter 3 to some subdirectory under $LFS/usr/src (you
 
- will need to create the desired directory yourself).

- <title>FHS compliance notes</title>
 
- <para>
 
- The FHS stipulates that the /usr/local directory should contain the bin, games,
 
- include, lib, man, sbin, and share subdirectories. You can alter your /usr/local
 
- directory yourself if you want your system to be FHS-compliant.
 
- </para>
 
- <para>
 
- Also, the standard says that there should exist a /usr/share/games directory,
 
- which we don't much like for a base system. But feel free to make your system
 
- FHS-compliant if you wish. The FHS isn't precise as to the structure of the
 
- /usr/local/share subdirectories, so we took the liberty of creating the
 
- directories that we felt needed.
