Thanks Elly, This worked:
sudo apt-get install gawk sudo update-alternatives --set awk /usr/bin/gawk Then I started from scratch and all is well.

It might still be trying to find mawk. If that fails as well, try rebuilding the entire LFS system, as the tools might be directing to mawk as well. If even that fails, make sure Ubuntu is using gawk as the default awk, and that all programs are using gawk as well. Though, at last check, I didn't think the server edition came with mawk at all...
