Hello everybody! /Call from a student/ I'm following this group since quite a long time, and I've got many new things to learn from it even without asking. Thanks for it guys. Now I have a quite simple question. I want to install a light version of Linux. I want to just write C programs in it and run them. It could do without the GUI. I've heard that Linux can be installed by getting the kernel, libraries and tools of our choice separately and then compiled to form a complete OS. How can it be done?

Well, with LFS, isn't there the dependency hell to be resolved manually?. Gentoo's portage is awesome.

Use Gentoo. http://www.gentoo.org/ If you want even a tougher path see Debian from scratch http://www.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=05/01/10/1727246

Or an easier path with debian base-install.
