It's been a while since I did an LFS install, but I assume you have a
partition mounted on `/mnt/lfs`. If that's the case the easiest thing is
to recreate the filesystem. Imagine mount shows something like:

/dev/sdb1 on /mnt/lfs type ext4 (rw)

You would un mount the filesystem:

umount /mnt/lfs

Re-create the filesystem

mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1

and remount it

mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/lfs

Then you should have an empty filesystem waiting for you.
