Still this command cannot work, because it lacks the directory or the
file to which you want to apply the chmod.
Do you mean "chmod a+rx ." or "chmod a+rx /sources"? In the latter case,
this is supposed to be done right at the beginning (section 3.1
Introduction of the LFS book). Actually the instructions there assume
that the "mkdir $LFS/sources" create the directory with permissions 775.
This is usually the case when you "su" on modern distros, unless you
have a different "umask". You might want to add "umask 022" to your root
bash_profile.
