Uhm... Your exercise is to build a complety new Linux Distribution by next week? Wow... that's pretty tough, considering, that took the Debian Project several years of development to create the tools and infrastructure to come up with a stable release. Maybe it would be worth to consider, how you define meaned with "build [a] new linux distribution", and probably ask your lecturer what he expects you to do. After that, take either a look at the simple-cdd package or at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ , what ever fits your purpuse best. > 2. Why do you want to have all the fun? Because we earned to have the fun to create a Linux Distribution, when we got all the pain to create a Linux Distribution :) Yours sincerely, Alexander -- http://learn.to/quote/ http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
