Narrative:
Taxiing to active runway. While performing taxi checklists, lax tower cleared our aircraft to position and hold north runway 24R. The captain taxied onto and held on runway 24L. We then made an attempt to confirm runway clearance, but could not due to congested frequency. At this point ATC cleared an aircraft to land on runway 24L. ATC advised the traffic to go around and we were then instructed to taxi clear of runway 24L. No incident occurred and we were then cleared for takeoff runway 24L. I was the PNF and read back the initial clearance correct. Supplemental information from acn 265717: frequency very busy, I couldn't confirm assigned runway.
