LFS on vfat usb

#mkdir /mnt/lfs/tools ...OK
#chown lfs /mnt/lfs/tools ...Operation not permitted

K what am I doing wrong? I thought that the LFS book said vfat was supported ...but I can't find that page right now. All I can find is this page saying only e2, e3, reiser, and xfs. But I don't think I can get grub to work on my stick so I want vfat so I can use syslinux.

mount -l says the usb is mounted rw, so wtf? I got as far as glibc 2nd pass on reiserfs usb.

P.S. I boot into an LFS livecd image located on my Arch partition, then mount both Arch and the usb then link to them from root.
