Who sussed out that syslogd needs /etc/services, and introduced me to the phrase ``rolling your own'' to describe building a system from source code.

For bringing Vico and his ``verum ipsum factum'' (understanding arises through making) to my attention.

Dennis Scott

For correcting my hexidecimal arithmetic.

jdd

For pointing out some typos.

14.5 Change History

0.8 -> 0.9 (November 2000)

• Incorporated some information from Matthieu Peeters and John Fremlin on kernel deamons and the /proc filesystem.

0.7 -> 0.8 (September 2000)

• Removed instructions on how to build a system, placing them in a separate document. Adjusted a few links accordingly.
• Changed homepage from learning@TasLUG to my own webspace.
• Completely failed to incorporate a lot of good material contributed by various people. Maybe next time :(

0.6 -> 0.7

• more emphasis on explanation, less on how to build a system, building info gathered together in a separate section and the system built is trimmed down, direct readers to Gerard Beekmans' ``Linux From Scratch'' doc for serious building
• added some ramblings contributed by David Leadbeater
• fixed a couple of url's, added link to unios download at learning.taslug.org.au/resources
• tested and fixed url's
• generally rewrite, tidy up

0.5 -> 0.6

• added change history
• added some todos

14.6 TODO

• explain kernel modules, depmod, modprobe, insmod and all that (I'll have to find out first!)
• mention the /proc filesystem, potential for exercises here
• convert to docbook sgml
• add more exercises, perhaps a whole section on larger exercises, like creating a minimal system file by file from a distro install.
• add makefile hack to bash build instructions - see easter notes.
