Start at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/download.html and follow the link 'Daily rendered snapshots may be downloaded". That drops you into http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/downloads/svn/ OK, I admit it looks just like a load of patches, but within it there are two tar archives, for blfs-book (-svn-html, currently 2010-02-16) and blfs-bootcripts (currently 2009-03-02). Examining the html tarball, it will disgorge itself into the current directory, so create a directory for it first. The files within it are actually for 2010-02-15 (it's in the titles). simples :) ĸen -- After tragedy, and farce, "OMG meerkats!" -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
