As for why ubuntu boots but LFS doesn't, it related to having initrd/initramfs (i've no idea which ubuntu uses), Ubuntu will be using a modular kernel with all the required boot modules stored in the ramdisk, thus the i/o controller drivers are available when the kernel needs them. Because you built a custom kernel for LFS without a ramdisk, you had to compile the drivers into the kernel. The previous reply is still what you need to do to fix it, but I thought I'd try and shed some light on why it happened for you.
