"Driver" is a generic term which is used to to refer to different
interfaces in the kernel.
YOU claim that to say "re-install" is a strange piece of advice.
I, actually, everyone, would love to hear from you just exactly which
driver the OP is missing.
1. LFS got on to the hard drive using the host's drivers.
2. The specific driver needed depends on the HW. Try rebuilding the
kernel with make defconfig; make

Hey Bruce,
you are saying that LFS varies and depends on the hardware??
Exactly which hardware?
The disk IO layer drivers are dependent on type of disk HW interface
at the lowest level.
Above that an abstraction layer is used, and it is possible (if
necessary) to build yet
another abstraction layer above that.
The FS's LFS layer is built on top of the "block io" layer, as the
file system works
with BLOCKS.
So, please explain what type of hardware is LFS dependent on?
Would you happen to be here for inquiries on Large File Support (LFS),
not Linux From Scratch? The two things are entirely separate, and "Large
File Support" was coined many years after the Linux From Scratch
distribution was started.
