After taking a closer look, I realize that my /rescue now has 130 
identical
2.5 MB binaries in it.  I assume they were supposed to be hard-linked, 
or
the like.  Any idea why this failed?  Is this a build problem, or an 
install
problem?

   I used build.sh -U to build as a regular user, then used build.sh -U 
install=/
as root to install, just like I usually do.

   Any suggestions how it got messed up?

   Thanks...
