Joe,

Like a 'hungry dog' I've come back to the 'bone.'  I modified the instructions,
removing '2>/dev/null' from the loop construct to get a closer look, also 
setting
the script to debug.  Here are the pertinent lines prior to failure:

+ cd /mnt/clfs/usr/share/info
+ rm dir
+ for f in '*'
+ install-info as.info dir
+ for f in '*'
+ install-info autoconf.info dir
+ for f in '*'
+ install-info automake.info dir
+ for f in '*'
+ install-info automake.info-1 dir
install-info: menu item 'aclocal' already exists, for file 'automake'
clfs:~$

What's interesting is the loop construct runs without error after boot into the 
system,
creating the directory as it should.

I don't know what to make of this yet, but the obvious temporary fix is to run 
this after
first boot into the system (or chroot if cross-compiling within the same 
architecture).

Regards,

Harvey
