Version LFS 6.2.3 Live CD

Book Section 5.3

When attempting to create the directory binutils-build using

     mkdir -v ../binutils-build 

the directory cannot be created as this backs up one level in the directory 
structure taking me to   "home"   which requires root access. 

Home permissions are:

             drwxr-xr-x   3  root root

Directory for this path is:

root
  |  
home
  |
lfs

home/lfs permissions are:

             drwxr-xr-x   2  lfs lfs


Am I in the right directory at this time? I have seen other messages which 
indicated I need to be in the directory:
    /mnt/lfs/sources

but if that is valid I would have the same problem as /mnt/lfs is owned by root 
with no write provision for user lfs.

Any idea were I am going wrong here or in a previous section?

Thanks
