I will unfortunately continue this thread with nothing but opinions. I
think that any person wanting to run Unix on their own computer should be
able to 1) download files, 2) uncompress and untar files, 3) type 'make
config', and the least 4) make a boot floppy. They don't even have to
understand LILO.

Making a new kernel is not that difficult.
