[NTLUG:Discuss] NTLUG Distro revisited

[erich]

Linux built from source is nothing new.
see:

                     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gentoo_Linux

 "from scratch" seems to mean. We'll give you this cookbook. Go out
there and download sources from places we approve of, and good luck
with the hardware/software integration.

      Distros such as Ubuntu appeal to users because the hardware/software
integration task is almost nothing for the end user. However, there are
nuances in a given machine that an auto-install might miss, and the full
capability of the hardware may not be enabled.
