5Users who don't want to build an entire Linux system from scratch
[72033583]6probably don't want to read this book. If a user, however, wants to learn
[6370fa6]7more about what happens behind the scenes, in particular what happens
[72033583]8between turning on the computer and seeing the command prompt, he wants
[6370fa6]9to read the <quote>From Power Up To Bash Prompt</quote> (P2B) HOWTO.
[0c6dc0d]10This HOWTO builds a bare system, in way similar to the one this book
11uses, but it focusses more on just installing a bootable system instead
12of a complete system.

[72033583]16To decide whether to read this book or the P2B HOWTO, a user could
17ask himself this question: "Is my main objective to get a working Linux
[0c6dc0d]18system that I'm going to build myself and, along the way, learn what
19every component of a system is for, or is just the learning part my main
[72033583]20objective?" If he wants to build and learn, he reads this book. If he just
21wants to learn, then the P2B HOWTO is probably better material to read.
