From Scratch (LFS) is a project that provides you with
step-by-step instructions for building your own custom Linux
system, entirely from source code.
Currently, the Linux From Scratch organization consists of
the following subprojects:
-
LFS
:: Linux From Scratch is the main book, the
base from which all other projects are derived.
-
BLFS
:: Beyond Linux From Scratch helps you extend your
finished LFS installation into a more customized and
usable system.
-
ALFS
:: Automated Linux From Scratch provides tools for
automating and managing LFS and BLFS builds.
-
CFS
:: Cross Linux From Scratch provides the means to
cross-compile an LFS system on many types of systems.
-
HLFS
:: Hardened Linux From Scratch focuses on building an
LFS system with heightened security.
-
Hints
:: The Hints project is a collection of documents that
explain how to enhance your LFS system in ways that are
not included in the LFS or BLFS books.
-
LiveCD
:: The LiveCD project provides a CD that is useful as an
LFS build host or as a general rescue CD.
-
Patches
:: The Patches project serves as a central repository
for all patches useful to an LFS user.

News Server Down Indefinitely
Jeremy Huntwork - 2005/11/09
Due to various recurring issues
with our news server, it has been decided to take it offline
indefinitely. We apologize for any inconvenience this
causes.
In the meantime, the LFS
server admins are researching making use of gmane.org for
those users that prefer using news servers over mailing
lists.
