The post-build script can be where you want it :)
When you define the post build script to run, it is relative to the
buildroot main directory
Personally, I keep my post-build is a directory structure like:
board/manufacture/model/post-build.sh

Then I have a
board/manufacture/model/root-additions/
directory structure.

Agreed

Somewhere I saw some slides that had a recommended way to do this. It
also had a minimal post-build script to run. It is on the mailing list
somewhere.
