I've not used LFS. I've talked to many people who have. LFS is an exceptionl learning experience, for those who'd like to understand the Linux-based implementtion of the *ix architecture at a very fine, nuts-and-bolts level. If your experience with it and its associated book is like that of pretty much everyone I've discussed it with, once you are done with that learning experience, you will in no way want to build significant systems on it, and will have a renewed appreciation for distributions where you aren't building everything from scratch.

I think you'll be better off if you do some basic research rather than expect the Internet to do your thinking for you. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
