5We are going to build the LFS system by using an already installed Linux
6distribution such as Debian, SuSE, Slackware, Mandrake, RedHat, etc. There
7is no need to have any kind of bootdisk. We will use an existing Linux
8system as the base (since we need a compiler, linker, text editor, and
9other tools).

13If Linux was not installed yet, it is not possible to put this
14book to use right away. I suggest to first install a Linux
15distribution. It really doesn't matter which one is installed. It also
16doesn't need to be the latest version, though it shouldn't be too old.
17If it is about a year old or newer it should do just fine. It will save
18a lot of trouble if your normal system uses glibc-2.1 or newer.
19Libc5 isn't supported by this book, though it isn't impossible to use a
20libc5 system if there is no choice.
