Ah, OK. Now I understand.

It seems like you haven't declared your $THEOS variable, that's why it's not finding the toolchain folder.

Read the "Setting the $THEOS variable" part again then try running the toolchain command again.

im thinking maybe we could create that folder manually????

Could you try logging in as root in Ubuntu terminal?
