The mounting for /host is done in the initramfs, which makes this tricky
(for me anyway) to track down. I've found a workaround for the problem:
Edit /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-premount/root_locale
Append ,umask=022 to this line:
echo ROOTFLAGS=\"${ROOTFLAGS}locale=$ROOT_LOCALE\" >>
/conf/param.conf
so that it reads:
echo ROOTFLAGS=\"${ROOTFLAGS}locale=$ROOT_LOCALE,umask=022\" >>
/conf/param.conf
Save, run:
update-initramfs -k all -u
Reboot. /host will now be 755.
There may be a more appropriate place to make this change, but after
hours of googling and poking around various scripts, that worked for me.
