| 13 | <para>It is time to create some structure in the target CLFS file system.
|
|---|
| 14 | Create a standard directory tree by issuing the following commands:</para>
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | <screen><userinput>mkdir -pv ${CLFS}/targetfs/{bin,boot,dev,etc,home,lib/{firmware,modules}}
|
|---|
| 17 | mkdir -pv ${CLFS}/targetfs/{mnt,opt,proc,sbin,srv,sys}
|
|---|
| 18 | mkdir -pv ${CLFS}/targetfs/var/{cache,lib,local,lock,log,opt,run,spool}
|
|---|
| 19 | install -dv -m 0750 ${CLFS}/targetfs/root
|
|---|
| 20 | install -dv -m 1777 ${CLFS}/targetfs/{var/,}tmp
|

| 21 | mkdir -pv ${CLFS}/targetfs/usr/{,local/}{bin,include,lib,sbin,share,src}</userinput></screen>

| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | <para>Directories are, by default, created with permission mode 755, but
|
|---|
| 24 | this is not desirable for all directories. In the commands above, two
|
|---|
| 25 | changes are made—one to the home directory of user <systemitem
|
|---|
| 26 | class="username">root</systemitem>, and another to the directories for
|
|---|
| 27 | temporary files.</para>
|
|---|
| 28 |
|
|---|
| 29 | <para>The first mode change ensures that not just anybody can enter
|
|---|
| 30 | the <filename class="directory">/root</filename> directory—the
|
|---|
| 31 | same as a normal user would do with his or her home directory. The
|
|---|
| 32 | second mode change makes sure that any user can write to the
|
|---|
| 33 | <filename class="directory">/tmp</filename> and <filename
|
|---|
| 34 | class="directory">/var/tmp</filename> directories, but cannot remove
|
|---|
| 35 | another user's files from them. The latter is prohibited by the so-called
|
|---|
| 36 | <quote>sticky bit,</quote> the highest bit (1) in the 1777 bit mask.</para>
