I think, the original Gobo-developers no should begin the document-creation
("Gobo from scratch") at "zero", from "/dev/null"! Because this document
almost finished! I think about the newest LFS Book! Absolutely enough, if
the developers execute/implement the described steps in the LFS book, of
course, PLUS (add to) the GoboLinux-specialitys! (The special gobo-scripts,
boot scripts for ekzample, Compile and InstallPackage, etc). The LFS very
good, need only complement/integrate only with the way, how can we placed
all programs to the GoboLinux filesystem-hierarchy! This is for the
developers - I think- no more as a cca 1 week. Of course, via this way
comes only a commandline-distro, but I think, this is no problem, because
the Gobo-fans are at least "power-users".
I think, the developers no should make more developing on the GoboLinux,
absolutely enough the original, latest 014.01 goboscripts. In this Gobo
from scratch book they can/maybe presume/premise/suppose, that the reader
of this book have an installed 014.01 gobosystem on a one partition of the
HDD, for ekzample on the SDA3, and from this distro would like he/she
create the new "GFS" distro to the other (for ekzample SDA5) partition, in
CHROOT environment.
