I am working on Ubuntu and am having problems with the following command:

It generates lots of errors of the type:

/home/yaakov/LFS/sources/kbd-2.3.0-backspace-1.patch: Read-only file system

Cannot write to ‘/home/yaakov/LFS/sources/kbd-2.3.0-backspace-1.patch’ (Read-only file system).

I tried the same command with sudo and still got the same errors.

How is the lfs partition mounted?

  mount | grep LFS

should give something like:

  /dev/<device> on  /home/yaakov/LFS type ext4 (rw,noatime,discard)

If it does not say rw, then you need to remount the directory read/write.
