I'm happy with the consensus on your suggestion achieved by the colonists and night-owls :-) but would like to add this into the idea melting-pot: One of the enduring FAQs on BLFS is the build order/dependency sequence. I note another discussion of it in the thread 'GCC-3.3.6' between Greg and Randy. I've often thought it would be nice if there were a few sample builds, say 'Office Workstation', 'Author's Workstation', 'Secure Mail Server' or similar. These would be a selection of the BLFS pages hyperlinked with a narative showing the new reader how these are typically built using the BLFS instructions. We could then use the samples as QA scripts. I would be quite keen to write some of these myself. I have more to say on this is it meets general acceptance, but I'll reserve that if the idea is rejected (and so save my fingers ;) Richard. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
