To add init=/bin/bash do I need to install sysvinit?
No
Is there any relation with init=/bin/bash with sysvinit?
No
And if I omit init=/bin/bash the system is freezed, can't do anything
from there. Is init=/bin/bash necessary?
No. But init="something" is necessary [1]: that's what the kernel
launches when it is done with initialization.
But linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.7.2 init=/bin/bash works fine for now.
Without root="something"? You're lucky if so.
NOTE: I've removed/uninstalled lfs-bootscripts and /etc/inittab
Your distro, your rules...

[1] not quite: by default, it tries launching /sbin/init. Init can be
any executable. You could remove the init=/bin/bash if you'd run, for
example:
ln -s /bin/bash /sbin/init
