Peter,

Since I am still learning I must defer to you.  I had assumed (bad word!) the 
`mkdir -pv /var/tftpboot` below would have done both.

I think the answer is "yes".

Is the `mkdir -pv /var/tftpboot` below for the make build phase only?

If `mkdir -pv /var/tftpboot` belongs in the `install.sh` script then I can add it.  
And I can remove the `mkdir -pv /var/tftpboot` from the LFS file.

Your guidance is needed!

Jon
