It appears that 'this_script' is taken from the xml filename. I can
easily change that. The problem is that the home page calls it 'XZ
Utils', but the package is named xz-version.
I went ahead and made the change in rev 9438. It shouldn't make any
changes to rendered book.

Do you get a menu before it starts to build? If so type 'c' when it
comes up and enter commands there.
I'd also recommend cutting down the grub.cfg file to the minimum and
posting it here, You really only need something like this to start:
insmod ext2
set root=(hd0,1)
menuentry Linux 2.6.36.2-lfs {
linux /linux-2.6.36.2-lfs root=/dev/sda1 ro
But it really sounds like you are booting, but there is a problem with

'root=/dev/sda1' is for the linux kernel.

Until you get it to boot, no. If it can't mount /, where would it write
to?
I don't think you understand. Make a grub.cfg file that is exactly 5
lines long:
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,1)'
menuentry LFS {
linux /boot/vmlinux-2.6.36-lfs-6.7 root=/dev/sda1 ro

What partition did you use for LFS? /dev/sdb1? Try all variations of
root=/dev/sd??.
fstab at this point doesn't matter.
