The only cause I can think of is a missing symlink. In step 4.2, you should have created a symlink thus: ln -sv $LFS/tools / This is supposed to make the tools usable in chapter 6. One thing the book does not mention, is that this link is created in the host system. Since you are running off the live CD, you have to recreate this link every time you reboot your computer. I don't know if there is a way to fix it from where you are, or if you'll have to start over. Perhaps someone else can tell you.
