You know, it's done already. Over the years quite a few universities and colleges have used the LFS project as material for hands-on UNIX projects. I myself have even taught such a class myself a number of years ago on the SUN Solaris platform as part of the SUN Solaris System Admin course. It ended up being a very informative lab trying to build SUN from scratch (in the binary sense. I didn't get to do a proper From Scratch using source code only. That isn't so easily done on SUN systems where not all source code is even freely available).
