Hi Jonathan,

I had to ditch my SourceMage box as I needed to match a clients setup.
Now that job is done, I'm going to put SM back on my development pc
and was considering doing just what you propose here, except I was
going to use Knoppix 3.1 as the boot environment - should let me
do a very clean SM install and avoid the static linked steps that
LFS needs.
Time has been my biggest constraint at the moment, I also want to
check the hardware config side of Knoppix to see if it can be used to
predefine kernel and module options for compilation. The idea of
having a machine specific optimised kernel as the first one on
the box kinda appeals to me. Particularly if I only need to say "cast
linux-auto" to get it ;-)

Was also kinda my thoughts. If you get more info or give this a go
before I get chance to, let me know how it goes.
