I was actually considering to fully embrace ALFS and BLFS at some point, as their recipes work quite well for bootstrapping purposes. Perhaps if you switch to the stable JHALFS rather than the development snapshot things get more stable? I did develop a while back a tool called BootStrap. The problem is not to develop the beast, but rather to maintain it (and then we have the manpower issue.) Moreover, I would like to be able to focus our energy on things that matter for us, which include the GoboLinux Scripts/Compile tools and file system virtualization ideas. The less time we spend on the compilation and arrangement of the base+desktop packages, the better. Otherwise it becomes too much of a monkey business for us. Best regards, Lucas
