[sentinix-list] Devel LFS 5.0 temporary system (sentinix buildsys) [for developers only]

SENTINIX will now entirely use the LFS (http://linuxfromscratch.org) temporary 
system to compile the SENTINIX source tree from scratch.   I have 
successfully compiled LFS 5.0 and made an auto-compiling source tree out of 
it.

Next release of SENTINIX will use GCC 3.3.2 and glibc 2.3.2, instead of GCC 
2.95.3 as previously.

If you want to check it out...

The LFS sentinix source tree is available here:
ftp://kaosphere.ath.cx/sentinix-devel/lfs-sentinix-1.0.tar.bz2  (about 125MB)

Untar and look at the "config" file, then run "./install-all.sh". You may want 
to read the README file first, though.  The source code takes about 1.8GB 
fully untared, and the compiled binaries/libraries takes about 400MB 
(initially, before stripping).

Compilation took 1h 35m on a dual P3 1.3GHz (Proliant DL360).  If it compiles 
successfully, you may test it by typing:

$ PATH="/static/bin" chroot /static sh

Type "ls" or something. :)
