<title>Who would not want to read this book</title>

<para>

Users who don't want to build an entire Linux system from scratch
|
|
probably don't want to read this book. If you, however, do want to learn
|
|
more about what happens behind the scenes, in particular what happens
|
|
between turning on your computer and seeing the command prompt, you want
|
|
to read the <quote>From Power Up To Bash Prompt</quote> (P2B) HOWTO.
|
|
This HOWTO builds a bare system, in a similar way as this book does, but it
|
|
focusses more on just installing a bootable system instead of a complete
|
|
system.

|
|
To decide whether you want to read this book or the P2B HOWTO, you could
|
|
ask yourself this question: Is my main objective to get a working Linux
|
|
system that I'm going to build myself and along the way learn and
|
|
learn what every component of a system is for, or is just the learning
|
|
part your main objective. If you want to build and learn, read this
|
|
book. If you just want to learn, then the P2B HOWTO is probably better
|
|
material to read.
