09/15/2006: Tar File With All Linux From Scratch Source Packages
Section 3.2 of the Linux From Scratch bookmentions 57(!) packages and 39 patches that need to be downloaded in order to create your own Linux. I've downloaded all of the packages and patches and combined them into two TAR files to save *you* time. The files are located at:
http://www.dbbits.com/LinuxFromScratchPackages.tar
http://www.dbbits.com/LinuxFromScratchPatches.tar
You can grab these files with these commands:
wget http://www.dbbits.com/LinuxFromScratchPackages.tar wget http://www.dbbits.com/LinuxFromScratchPatches.tarAnd you can extract the files with this command:
tar -xvf LinuxFromScratchPackages.tar tar -xvf LinuxFromScratchPatches.tarOnce the files are extracted, you will have a set of *.tar.gz and *.tar.bz2 files. The various package files can be uncompressed with these commands:
tar -zxvf packages/vim-7.0-lang.tar.gz tar --bzip2 -xvf packages/binutils-2.16.1.tar.bz2
