It's Gerard with an 'r' but that's Ok, get it all the time. A presentation on LFS is very hard to do in a short amount of time. I could talk about what LFS stands for, how it might compare to Gentoo and other distributions, but actually showing an LFS installation won't mean much. All you see is me copy & paste some command and then we wait 20 minutes for Glibc to compile and install. The theory behind LFS is all that is interesting I think, actually seeing it, not really. I think I'd keep that presentation, if any, kind of informal. If people gather around and want to ask some questions, sure I'll answer them no problem. I just make a horrible public speaker (I've tried it, it just does not work) so don't expect me to stand in front of the entire crowd and talk away ;) -- Gerard Beekmans http://www.linuxfromscratch.org http://www.beekmansworld.com // Linux Consultant --- OSDN / DevChannel // If Linux doesn't have the solution, you have the wrong problem
