The book recommends a host system that is like or newer than LFS 6.3, which is dated around late 2007. Redhat 9 was released around 2003 or so, and that tells me right there that your host system is way too old to build on.
While you could contune building, I'd recommend going and downloading the latest version of the Knoppix LiveCD (or LiveDVD if you prefer) from http://www.kernel.org/pub/dist/knoppix/. There is help at http://www.knopper.net/knoppix-info/index-en.html, and be sure to look at the cheatcodes for Knoppix. -- William Immendorf The ultimate in free computing.
