37 | but this is not desirable for all directories. In the commands above, |

38 | two changes are made—one to the home directory of user |

43 | the <filename class="directory">${LFS}/root</filename> directory—the |

44 | same as a normal user would do with his or her home directory. The |
---|
45 | second mode change makes sure that any user can write to the |
---|
46 | <filename class="directory">${LFS}/tmp</filename> and |
---|
47 | <filename class="directory">${LFS}/var/tmp</filename> directories, but |
---|
48 | cannot remove another user's files from them. The latter is prohibited |

49 | by the so-called <quote>sticky bit,</quote> the highest bit (1) in the |

54 | |

55 | <para>The directory tree is based on the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard |
---|
56 | (FHS) (available at <ulink url="http://www.pathname.com/fhs/"/>). In |
---|
57 | addition to the tree created above, this standard stipulates the |
---|
58 | existence of <filename class="directory">/usr/local/games</filename> |
---|
59 | and <filename class="directory">/usr/share/games</filename>. The FHS |
---|
60 | is not precise as to the structure of the <filename |
---|
61 | class="directory">/usr/local/share</filename> subdirectory, so we |
---|
62 | create only the directories that are needed. However, feel free to |
---|
63 | create these directories if you prefer to conform more strictly to |
---|
64 | the FHS.</para> |
