- <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.
- </para>
- <para>
- 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.
