had a similar problem yesterday installing LFS 6.2 using LiveCD 6.2-4 on Toshiba U200 notebook. The new kernel could not open the root file system not recognizing /dev/sda3. Seems a problem with udev and kernel not populating /dev. It was solved by using the .config file from the LiveCD to compile a new kernel, sense the LiveCD booted and ran nicely on the notbook. Next boot with the new kernel compiled kernel booted smoothly and LFS 6.2 ran with no problem. Sami
