So I realized that some people here may not be as familiar with my implementation as I am, so a further explanation may help.
The si I am working on is built on the Linux From Scratch (LFS) groups work. It started with their definition for LFS 3.2 and the nALFS (automated LFS) tool. >From this we created a multi stage build process. There is a bootstrap which compiles the bare essentials -- glibc, bash, compiler, a few components -- statically and drops them in a directory. We then have a phase2 which chroots ito the above directory and begins building a Linux distribution. It is mostly the LSB definition of what is required but because it has to be self hosting there is also the build tools. This is why all of the compiler and library packages are there. It is essentially LSB + development system and could be used to create LSB compliant packages as a development platform. Nice when you can use waste products for something useful (-: phase3 is the actual LSB system. It is built from within the phase2 system and compiled much like RPM or DEBs are. We compile them locally and do 'make install DESTDIR=/path/to/real/location'. So phase3 is ONLY what the LSB requires plus any linux requirements. Hope this helps. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
