That's an intentional effect of the "none" setting.
To see why, run vanilla "lh_config" then read config/chroot (and config/!(chroot) for good measure). > New runs: > After doing the following in an empty directory, I get a binary.img file. > lh_config -d etch -b usb-hdd > lh_build 2>&1 | tee log -d sid probably makes much more sense. In particular it will use live-initramfs instead of casper (about this I know nothing more, though). > My last run from an empty directory was like this: > lh_config -d etch -b usb-hdd > cp /usr/src/linux-image-2.6.20.19-rt_1_i386.deb config/chroot_local-packages > lh_build 2>&1 | tee log > > The standard kernel boots ok after I made the above corrections.

That's due to missing squashfs and unionfs/aufs. You have to compile the modules yourself if you're not using a standard kernel. Note some previous thread messages which document how the kernel image has to be named. In particular, "the argument to --linux-flavors must be the same as the make-kpkg option --append-to-version but without the leading hyphen character."
