It's most likely that this is a kernel config problem, or just possibly
you have wierd isa or pci hardware.  Don't start another LFS build until
you are through this step, you'll just waste your time.

What did you change from the default kernel configuration after mrproper
(in the 'make menuconfig' step)?  Try booting the liveCD and note all
the hardware detected in the dmesg|less output - try and find these
items in the kernel config and look at the help for each one. You say it
hangs in the isapnp stage, this is where to start.  What have you got on
the isa and pci buses?  Did you configure them as 'built in' or as
modules - if modules did you remember to do 'make modules~_install', and
did the modules you'd expect get installed?
