[wellylug] Linux from Scratch

[Lyndsay Mountfort]

Hi Jethro

I've had a crack at this with some success, although I've never 
completed the process, mainly due to other distractions and temporary 
lack of space forcing me to put the box (P100, 64MB) into storage for a 
while.

I got as far as a working, commandline only machine. That's the point at 
which I stopped. From what I recall the instructions were extremely 
accurate and complete. I had to backtrack a few times because of relying 
too much on memory, and so missing the odd step. But it was all 
reasonably intuitive. I do intend to continue the process at some future 
date - when I get my study back, some renovations to complete first :(

It was certainly interesting and educational for me anyway. I would also 
be interested in how you get on.
