[expert] Basic Install

[David]

Hello All.......

I'm curious too know, if some could give me an idea of what would be the
minimum install to get a basic system up and running..

What i'm after is too do a system from the ground up installing just the
progs that i want on the system, recompiling them as i install them
etc......

Basically I'm doing this out of a combination of curiousity, and to get
a more in depth working knowledge of linux in general.....

Any ideas would be mucho......

Thanks
David
