Well, my rebuilding of the kernel must have worked - in a way. When I booted into my Manjaro system (the main system, with LFS as "dual boot"), I found I had no wifi. Which was odd. So I started poking around and the wifi kernel driver was missing. A little more investigating and I found that I'd mis-GRUBbed something and had booted Manjaro using my LFS kernel. Aside from the missing wifi module, at least I know I'd recompiled the kernel properly - I just put it in the wrong place.
I'll try getting kernel images back in their proper places and see if I can make it right.
