LFS 7.5-rc1 6.2.3. Mounting Virtual Kernel File Systems Re: mkdir -pv $LFS/$(readlink $LFS/dev/shm)
If the host's /dev/shm is a symbolic link to /run/shm, then "readlink $LFS/dev/shm" will output "/run/shm". mkdir apparently ignores the extra forward slash and creates the directory, but the verbose output of mkdir will be "/mnt/lfs//run/shm" which looks wrong to anyone reading the verbose output (me). It's trivial. Anyway. P.S.: All the other instances of readlink in the book produce "../<something>" and don't do this.
