I think it should go right with the mount commands so there is no
confusion. Also, we don't know whether another package depends upon
an mtab file being present. To me, it's safest to add
mkdir -pv ${LFS}/etc
touch ${LFS}/etc/mtab
to the kernfs page. With a note like
"A proper Linux system maintains a list of the mounted file systems in
the /etc/mtab file. Since we will not be mounting any filesystems
inside the chroot, create an empty file for utilities that expect its'
presence."
