-<para>Directories are, by default, created with permission mode 755, but this
-isn't desirable for all directories. In the commands above, we make two changes:
-one to the home directory of <emphasis>root</emphasis>, and another to the
-directories for temporary files.</para>

-<para>The first mode change ensures that not just anybody can enter the
-<filename class="directory">/root</filename> directory -- the same
-as a normal user would do with his or her home directory.
-The second mode change makes sure that any user can write to the
-<filename class="directory">/tmp</filename> and
-<filename class="directory">/var/tmp</filename> directories, but
-cannot remove other users' files from them. The latter is prohibited
-by the so-called <quote>sticky bit</quote> -- the highest bit in the 1777 bit

-<title>FHS compliance note</title>
-
-<para>We have based our directory tree on the FHS standard (available at
-<ulink url="http://www.pathname.com/fhs/"/>). Besides the above created
-tree this standard stipulates the existence of
-<filename class="directory">/usr/local/games</filename> and
-<filename class="directory">/usr/share/games</filename>, but we don't
-much like these for a base system. However, feel free to make your system
-FHS-compliant. As to the structure of the
-<filename class="directory">/usr/local/share</filename> subdirectory, the FHS
-isn't precise, so we created here the directories that we think are needed.</para>
