Oh well, if you stick with it, you'll learn the right places to look, which is
9/10ths of the battle. http://www.google.com/linux & a search for "cannot find
lcurses" produced 197 hits, & clicking: 
"More results from archive.linuxfromscratch.org" got me:
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/mail-archives/lfsapps/2000/11/0204.html

cd /usr/lib && ln -s libncurses.a libcurses.a 

Thats missing from the 3.0pre4 version of the book :(

You might want to get the 2.4.4 version of the book from:
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-museum/2.4.4/
& compare chapters if you run in to trouble.

As to zipslack, if you were running it in a DOS partition, it would take a very
long time to compile things anyway, & it looks like you are missing some headers
(the .h files).
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-museum/2.4.4/LFS-BOOK-INTEL-2.4.4-HTML/ch05-kernel.html
(note split) explains how you could install a kernel & link to get the headers,
the 3.0pre4 "installing a kernel" chapter explains how you could copy them.

As to the mailing lists & IRC being helpful, I meant for asking questions on/in,
before somebody LART's you for all this cross-posting.

stretches out in front of you, an endless night of coffee, technical manuals,
snack food wrappers, disgruntled family members, and hundreds of hours spent
struggling to become adept. Or you can hire a consultant. -Tom Oehser.
