Well, maybe LFS. Good luck coming to terms with FreeBSD though. It will feel like 2003-era Gentoo, without portage. This is a lot like coming to terms with electronic ignitions after 30 years of dealing with points. Feels painful. But only until you start noticing vastly extended plug life and a much better fuel economy. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckinnon@gmail.com
