As has been mentioned before, there should not be spaces around the = 
sign. If you are somehow getting extra spaces when copying and pasting 
the command, there is probably a problem with the browser or whatever 
you are using to view the book, or you are reading some copy, such as 
from a mirror or perhaps a translation, that is faulty. Are you using 
the book directly from the linuxfromscratch.org site, or from somewhere 
else?

Yes, the book is correct. If $LFS is properly defined, and the directory 
(/mnt/lfs for example) does exist, that command works just fine.
