Hello, nice to see you here. You can definitely embark on a build from scratch effort. The BeleniX environment today is a complete development environment and one can even build OpenSolaris from source on BeleniX. Recent releases of belenix have been completely built on BeleniX itself. For a head-start you may want to investigate the BeleniX source repository here: http://belenix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/belenix/ And the project page here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/belenix Of course I will be glad to answer any questions you have.
