The Projects section has been implemented for a specific purpose and coordinated. I believe that in a world of open source and free is essential they can build their own configurations and distribution according to needs, without any structural constraint, such as kernel modules and so on. The information that will be available today are designed to make it clear to all those who wish to learn, and through the guides can be targeted to build from scratch its own GNU / Linux distribution.

I wanted to present the project is called Linux From Scratch in its orginiria and more variations that we will see. If we wanted to do a bit of history, this project was initially brought forward by the Pluto Project, which has collected in the world of open sources other than success. This community is concerned with free software according to the doctrine of the GNU Project (which deals with the special section).

From what is evident from the site of the PP ( Pluto Project ) the project is still active even if the updates are dated a moment considering that the site was implemented spokesman, linuxfromscratch.org where to find the various distributions currently available and developed.

For those who require it, you can still compile and configure a system from scratch with the pdf in Italian that the Pluto Project promptly tradotto.Le variants of LFS are BLFS - ALFS - CLFS - HLFS and a note on that is not even HINT but a distribution of extras that will help us for the specific references to the system configuration. The official version available is the 6.4.

With a moment of convenience we shall see in detail and specific sections of the field projects, the various distributions, documentation, links to mailing lists, reporting bugs and a live cd.

All this is to inculcate this culture even more that somehow has to evolve to the importance it represents the passage of time and given the conditions that proprietary software has and has always imposed.
