I looked a little farther, and the problem occurs in LFS/master.sh
inside of build_Makefile(), which tries to cd to the directory
JHALFSDIR/${PROGNAME}-commands. This gets called from jhalfs
when "Rebuild the Makefile" is selected. If that is not selected,
the tool complains that /media/lfs was not previously populated
by a run of jhalfs.

So, the FIRST time jhalfs is run, it isn't doing something it needs
to do in the way of populating the directory. As I stated, it's
broken, and people who regularly run it won't notice, b/c the
directory structure is present and populated.

As a kludgy work around I have, in times past, extracted the
tarball twice.

Instead, I'd like to suggest that whoever maintains jhalfs figure
out what's wrong and fix it.
