personally, i found it easier to just leave the machine turned on in a quiet corner, rather than go through re-mounting/chroot each time i want to work on it. i tend to find it serves as a little reminder/motivation too, and it means you can set off the huge compiles and leave the machine working whilst you get on with things like sleep ;)
If this is your first build of LFS I would encourage you to leave the system running, there are too many things which can mess up rebooting the system. Best thing for the first time is to follow the book as straight as possible (assuming you are not very familiar with linux at this time and know what you are doing).
