Could you help me please ???
I try the LFS version 5 and the LFS version 4.1 and I have the same problem :

The chroot doesn't work : /mnt/lfs/static/bin/env : it's not a directory.

root@plouf:~# chroot /mnt/lfs/static/bin/env -i \
> HOME=/root TERM=$TERM PS1='\u:\w\$' \
> PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/static/bin \
> /static/bin/bash --login
chroot: ne changer le répertoire racine vers /mnt/lfs/static/bin/env: N'est pas un répertoire

It looks as if you put static as the directory instead of tools so this should be what you want:

chroot /mnt/lfs /static/bin/env -i \
HOME=/root TERM=$TERM PS1='\u:\w\$ ' \
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/static/bin \
/static/bin/bash +h

The only difference is on the first line... space between /mnt/lfs and static and the last line +h is added. The reason for your errors is because of the first line (I think; cant read that language). But adding +h turns off hashing - look in the book for their explanation on that.

And the book warns about remembering to remount the proc and devpts filesystems when you enter chroot after leaving.

* Because you have the /static/bin in your path I assume your at the begging of chapter 6. ... not the end where a diff chroot command is used. *

Thanks for your response, but i try with a space between /mnt/lfs and /static/bin/env -i and it's not working too !

What errors are you getting now that you put the space there? Your original error of that not being a directory should not come up now.

i have exactly the same error :
The chroot doesn't work : /static/bin/env : it's not a directory.
thanks for your response !

I'm pretty sure this is the same problem.

After typing in the string (assume it's the same; typing it out would be redundant) I get the following:

chroot: /bin/bash: no such file or directory

This makes sense; the bin directory is located in tools, which is both above and below the new /. If I symlink the tools/bin directory in the top level structure, I've broken the separation between build utilities and distro utilities. Any ideas why this isn't working as the text says/how to fix it? Thanks
