I am suggesting you to umount /dev/sdb2 as Debian root and mount it still as Debian root without limiting options. You will need suid files (nosuid) and device nodes (nodev) later. You can create /mnt/lfs if you like an then /bin/mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/lfs. Then re-check by calling mount. Maybe you will need to write its fstab line with rw option only. Of course you can let it mount under /media and adjust LFS env. variable.
