glibc make fails inside of chroot enviroment

So today I was working on my LFS system using version 7.7 of the stable book. I got to the point where you build the glibc package after doing a chroot into the LFS directory. The package configures successfully, but when i run make, the terminal says Segment fault (core dumped). What is causing this and how can I fix it? I am running Ubuntu 14.04 inside a Virtual Machine in VMWare

I encountered the same problem. It is happening as I left chroot environment(due to reboot) and re-entered.

The solution is to repeat the construction of virtual kernel file system. Described in here.

Run ldd make in the environment in which you invoke make and verify that it is using system libc, and not some part of GLIBC that were left over from previous build attempts.

The most likely cause of a crash when building GLIBC is mixing parts of system GLIBC (e.g. ld-linux.so) and parts of newly-built GLIBC (e.g. libc.so.6). Any such mixing is almost guaranteed to crash at startup.
