Other Useful Resources

This article should have shown you how to create useful bootable diskettes and minimal Linux systems with just the programs you need. You cannot be without the following resources:

• Linux from scratch. If you got the taste of creating your own Linux system, one program at a time, one file at a time, compiling everything from source, then this is the next big thing. This site contains a detailed instruction how to compile a complete Linux system completely from source, including the libraries, C compiler and utilities. The target system is created on the hard disk and not on a diskette.
• Freshmeat. This site contains an index of almost all programs available for Linux. Most open source programs can be found there.
• The Linux Documentation Project. This site contains all Linux related documentation you ever wanted.
• My homepage contains the online version of this document.
