You should try to install LFS onto a real hardware disk, not a virtual machine. Every VM, regardless if it's Qemu, VMware Workstation, or VirtualBox, is going to have some level of issues. Even Microsoft's Server Oriented Hyper-V and Home system oriented VirtualPC software is known to have a few problems.
