<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 a user, however, wants to learn
|
|
more about what happens behind the scenes, in particular what happens
|
|
between turning on the computer and seeing the command prompt, he wants
|
|
to read the <quote>From Power Up To Bash Prompt</quote> (P2B) HOWTO.
|
|
This HOWTO builds a bare system, in way similar to the one this book
|
|
uses, but it focusses more on just installing a bootable system instead
|
|
of a complete system.

<para>
|
|
To decide whether to read this book or the P2B HOWTO, a user could
|
|
ask himself this question: "Is my main objective to get a working Linux
|
|
system that I'm going to build myself and, along the way, learn what
|
|
every component of a system is for, or is just the learning part my main
|
|
objective?" If he wants to build and learn, he reads this book. If he just
|
|
wants to learn, then the P2B HOWTO is probably better material to read.
