Ken and Bruce,
I suspected it has to do something with entropy, so I used 4.9.88
- 4.9.2
dit not compiled - and the result was the same. So, since 4.9.88
is from
somewhere in March I assume that there is no provision yet for the
spectre
etc. issue.
4.9 ? Really ? Rather you than me, I will be surprised if it works
with gcc-8.2.
And yes, of course I did "modules_install", the modules are
installed and
the initramfs is generated properly too. Until August all worked
well, but
after August it did not anymore.
We seem to be at cross purposes. You said you were using the
development book, now you mention an initramfs so clearly you have
at least something from BLFS. So, specifying the version(s) of the
books might be relevant. I've only booted (sysv) later than 8.3 on
two systems, one with 4.14.71, the other with 4.18.9, using
LFS-20180920 and BLFS-20180915 with occasional newer versions,
and neither have the entropy problem.
BUT: with 4.18.x and your delay of 12 seconds - What boot messages
(sysv) follow after that 12 second delay (and yes, just a summary of
WHICH bootscript runs after the delay - I know what it is like trying
to write down the messages once the bootscripts are running.)
cat /var/log/boot.log
Is it created if /sbin/init is not called?
No, it is not, but the discussion above asks about 'WHICH bootscript'
and I was replying to that.
I agree that the original problem was kernel configuration that caused
a failure before /sbin/init is called.

Before sleeping, it struck me: it's QEMU version 3.0 causing this
problem. It seems that this version is allergic to the '-cpu host'
argument. Once I removed that, it worked fine!. I had changed this in
most scripts, but not yet the script to start LFS/BLFS.
I apologize to all to bother you with a problem I knew how to solve
beforehand.
Until the next /real/ issue,
Frans.
