I know this question is a little off-topic and with a broad scope. And I am not interested in set up a new distro.
The fact is: I really want to know and perhaps be able to setup a ultra-mini-distro just to tell myself: I did it. I guess that thousands of people would enjoy that. I read Linux From Scratch but that is not a distro build guide. What is a distro? I could define a distro as a bootable media (using ISOLINUX perhaps) which boot a linux kernel configured to run a installer, which in turns runs several steps from partitioning disks and coping files (packages) to initial config (video, networking, etc). So, what do I need to know (and where could I find that information) to set up such thing? Do I need to be a kernel master? Is there any site trying to solve the great mysteries of life such: How does a distro born? or How does a kernel born? In the way, I am looking for good literature about kernels and operating systems. Thanks in advance. Valter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
