5Users who don't want to build an entire Linux system from scratch
6probably don't want to read this book. If you, however, do want to learn
7more about what happens behind the scenes, in particular what happens
8between turning on your computer and seeing the command prompt, you want
9to read the <quote>From Power Up To Bash Prompt</quote> (P2B) HOWTO.
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.

16To decide whether you want to read this book or the P2B HOWTO, you could
17ask yourself this question: "Is my main objective to get a working Linux
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
20objective?" If you want to build and learn, read this book. If you just
21want to learn, then the P2B HOWTO is probably better material to read.
