To be sure, you and I have different goals we're trying to achieve,

higher-level parts of my process are quite different than the book
supposes. While it may be confusing to the first-timer, I think there's
some value to discussion of process.
So ? I agree that if you screwed up the network interface itself
(misnamed, or missing kernel driver) then networking will not work
*after* you have booted until you fix that,
I've got a dozen, maybe two, things I've got to have immediately after
LFS, but firewall-protected networking comes next. So once I've got
networking going I usually shift to building the rest of the system in
the system itself--no questions of contamination or kernel support. I
admit to being a bit "old-school" and comfortable working/building at a
CLI with a couple VTs--though, admittedly a virgin LFS is a bit *too*
Spartan for comfort. Generally, GUI comes in the latter half of my
build process.
Just wanted to second that. I go about it jsut a little differently (as
does everyone, I'm sure). I've kept a patch for LFS that adds OpenSSL,
elf-utils, linux-firmware as a single blob (my preferred kernel config
requires these three), make-ca, OpenSSH, and wget as part of my jhalfs
run. I've been toying with blfs-tool a bit more lately, but with current
jhalfs, it's standing on its own 2 minutes after jhalfs finishes the run.
chroot immediately after jhalfs, rename the .network file and change the
MATCH= value, set root password, create a user, exit chroot. Update
existing bootloader, and reboot. The rest can be done over ssh.
