i have a problem while chrooting in to the $LFS in chapter 6.4.

chroot "$LFS" /tools/bin/env -i \
HOME=/root TERM="$TERM" PS1='\u:\w\$ ' \
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/tools/bin \
/tools/bin/bash --login +h

it says "operation is not permmitted".

is this because the command is been run in an unprevileged user "lfs".
