2<title>Who would not want to read this book</title>

4<para>People who don't want to build an entire Linux system from scratch
5probably don't want to read this book. If you, however, want to learn
6more about what happens behind the scenes, in particular what happens
7between turning on the computer and seeing the command prompt, you may
8want to read the <quote>From Power Up To Bash Prompt</quote> (P2B) HOWTO.
9This HOWTO builds a bare system, in a way similar to the one this book
10uses, but it focuses more on just installing a bootable system instead
11of a complete system.</para>
12
13<para>To decide whether to read this book or the P2B HOWTO, ask yourself this
14question: "Is my main objective to get a working Linux system that I'm
15going to build myself and, along the way learn what every component of
16a system is for? Or is just the learning part my main objective?" If
17you want to build and learn, read this book. If you just want to learn
18the basics, then the P2B HOWTO is probably better material to read.</para>
