	Welcome to Linux From Scratch!
		Linux From Scratch (LFS) is a project that provides you with step-by-step instructions for building your own custom Linux system, entirely from source code.
		LFS :: Linux From Scratch is the main book, the base from which all other projects are derived.
		CLFS :: Cross Linux From Scratch provides the means to cross-compile an LFS system on many types of systems.

	Linux From Scratch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Linux From Scratch (LFS) is the name of a book written by Gerard Beekmans and others.
		To keep LFS small and focused, the Beyond Linux From Scratch book was created which presents instructions on how to further develop the basic Linux system that was created in LFS.
		Linux From Scratch is a way to install a working Linux system by building all components of it manually.

		If we were to compare a Linux distribution with a hamburger you buy at a supermarket or fast-food restaurant, you would end up eating it without knowing precisely what it is you are eating, whereas LFS gives you the ingredients to make a hamburger.

	Linux From Scratch
		But if you want to learn how a Linux distribution works, how it interacts with all the pieces of free software internally, then you need to lock yourself in a room for a weekend with a copy of Linux From Scratch (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org).
		Linux From Scratch or LFS as its popularly known, is actually a book, which takes you through the, pain staking and time consuming but very informative, process of putting together your own Linux distribution.
		While traditionally LFS has required an existing Linux distribution to borrow several necessary files and libraries from, the project also has a Live CD (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/livecd/index.html) that includes all the required files and the LFS manual as well.

	Linux From Scratch - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks
		This book is an open source attempt at discussing how to create a Linux computer system by starting with a blank hard disk and assembling all the "parts" needed for a Linux distribution such as Debian, Fedora core, or Slackware.
		The first item needed is a LINUX boot disk to run FDISK or CFDISK (or you could use a non-destructive partitioning program such as FIPS, QTParted, or Paragon Partition Manager -- DO NOT use Partition Magic, it seems to have lots of trouble understanding Linux partitions).
		Mounting a partition means attaching it to the linux filesystem, you don't mouont a device or partition, you mount the filesystem "somewhere" in order to continue building linux.

	How to build your own Linux distribution
		Linux, often described as "just a kernel" (an arbitrary definition if ever there were one), presents a core of common functionality and implementations that do not change fundamentally whether the kernel runs on an underpowered Pentium® II machine or on a Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) system.
		It has moved beyond the Linux kernel and the device drivers, because to produce a working Linux system, you have to add a complete compiler tool chain, a number of Linux assembler utilities, the glibc system library, system configuration tools, and tools connected to userland shell access.
		The LFS family of Linux builds is, in many ways, a method for giving back the power to construct Linux-based operating systems to the people who started it all: the hackers.

		Linux is a clone of the operating system Unix, written from scratch by Linus Torvalds with assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across the Net.
		Linux has also been ported to a number of architectures without a PMMU, although functionality is then obviously somewhat limited.

	The Linux Documentation Project: Guides
		The overall goal of the LDP is to collaborate in taking care of all of the issues of Linux documentation, ranging from online documentation (man pages, HTML, and so on) to printed manuals covering topics such as installing, using, and running Linux.
		The author is working as senior Linux kernel engineer at VERITAS Software Ltd and wrote this book for the purpose of supporting the short training course/lectures he gave on this subject, internally at VERITAS.
		We've found that beginners to Linux networking, even those with no prior exposure to Unix-like operating systems, have found this book good enough to help them successfully get their Linux network configurations up and running and get them ready to learn more.

	Linux From Scratch
		Linux has come a long way from the old days when you had to bootstrap it from DOS.
		Perhaps, rather than ignoring the version which the document suggests, and using the latest of each package, a safer (yet still thrilling) approach may be to download the latest "unstable" version of the book which usually has the latest versions of nearly all of the packages.
		I've only skimmed through the Linux From Scratch "book," but it looks like it answers many of the questions I've had about bootstrapping yourself from the sources.
