That is the wrong solution. The correct solution is to look more
carefully at the book - specifically, read page 5.3.
I might also note that the 2nd link you provided does in fact give the
right solution - you are expected to cd into the unpacked package's
soruce directory, *then* type the commands on the package's installation
page. This is what the "Important" note at the bottom of page 5.3 says
to do. Chowning $LFS is not needed if you have followed the book's
instructions.
Sorry about that. I was jumping to conclusion.
Since BinUtils is the first package to be build, there should be some
additional info on directories of $LFS/sources, like:
binutils-2.24
binutils-build
or some notes that say:
If you encounter error "Permission denied", be sure that you are inside
binutils-2.24 directory.
This is just a suggestion to help newbies like me.
You didn't follow directions. Section 4.3 clearly says:
chown -v lfs $LFS/tools
chown -v lfs $LFS/sources
