Hi. You can be logged to LFS or the host sys, but you must be root. Create the new partition, and a filesystem. (if you already haven't) Mount both drives. Then just cp -aR * /mnt/your-new-hd in the root directory of the LFS partition should do it. And you must configure grub again, and don't forget to change the fstab of the LFS system. Then everything should work okay.
