The lack of ext* filesystems sounds a bit fatal - you would need to create an LFS filesystem which could eventually be booted, and I can't think of any 'doze filesystems which work well enough to do that. But the proof of the pudding is in the eating, and perhaps you could create an fs first, from a live CD - seems like a waste of time that could be used for other things, but if it scratches your itch them feel free to burn cycles on it. All sorts of experiences which are ultimately futile can have a learning component ;) ĸen -- I live in a city. I know sparrows from starlings.
