LFS, Gentoo or XYZ distribution. Which one for you?

| Finally, if you really, really want to learn exactly how a 
| Linux system is created. There are a couple of methods which I 
| know of that compile a complete Linux system from nothing. In 
| other words you start off with an empty partition and end up 
| with a working Linux system. The most famous one is the Linux 
| From Scratch book which is an online (downloadable) book for 
| compiling a Linux system from, er, scratch. Another, from a 
| thunder down under, is DIY Linux (Do It Yourself Linux). This 
| is not for the faint of heart and only those with a technical 
| bent and some knowledge of Linux can work on this. There is no 
| package management and every single aspect of your Linux system 
| is under your control. As an added bonus you will be able to 
| understand and work on any Linux system with ease.
