-<para>Let's create the directory tree on the LFS partition based on the FHS
+<para>Before we start creating directories, we need to check the base
+system's umask setting.  To do this, we run
+<userinput>umask</userinput>.  The result should be 022.  If it isn't,
+then run the following command to ensure that the directories will be
+created with the correct permissions:</para>
+
+<para><screen><userinput>umask 022</userinput></screen></para>
+
+<para>We would advise you to make sure that the umask is set to 022
+throughout your LFS install.</para>

 standard, which can be found at <ulink
