Hi, I have a feeling that a distro for a college project may be a little too ambitious. But that could well depend on its complexity. It could be possible if you are just planning to modify a current distro, or putting together a minimal one. A full fledged distro build is worth it only for special applications or with massive community participation.
Anyway, +1 for 'Linux from Scratch'. It is a great resource. May be the one place stop for understanding distro building. @ Sebin: I think you made a slight mistake about BeOS. BeOS was proprietary and is dead. Its FOSS clone, Haiku is the one in alpha. BeOS specs were very impressive, but got hunted down by- you know who! And just for record, the windoz clone is ReactOS- also in alpha. Both these projects are desperately in need of help. And since both are copying proprietary OSs, their development methods are very special. Regards, Gokul Das --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ "Freedom is the only law".
