It's easy enough to create a tarball of binaries for a specific architecture (686, x86_64, etc) and extract that to an empty partition. A rebuild of the kernel, setting up grub, and a script to handle some specific things (fstab, ip address, etc) would be easy enough. But then, I don't think of that as LFS. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
