1.0 out of 5 stars Old version of the project, February 27, 2001
This review is from: Linux from Scratch (Paperback)
This book is way out of date, the current status of this free project can be found at linuxfromscratch.org. The publishers of this book took material from the site and published it in paper form. The LFS version in this book is 2.2, currently it is 2.4.

Plus there are some questions about the publishers not talking to the actual author before publishing.

1.0 out of 5 stars Antiquity, February 26, 2001
By 
"graelig" (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Linux from Scratch (Paperback)
I have to say that this book is excellent. The version printed here is actually the _very first_ version of Linux From Scratch I ever built (but not the first ever version of LFS), seeing as this is only version 2.2. Version 2.4.4 is the current version, at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org. I highly recommend that you NOT buy this book, at least until an updated version is published following version 2.4.4. I should also note here that the author, Gerard Beekmans, was _not_ notified that his book was going to be published.

1.0 out of 5 stars A ripoff, October 26, 2009
This review is from: Linux From Scratch (Paperback)
You have done a good job concealing the fact that this book is in Italian. Now I find you don't accept returns. I have spent $25 and what can we do with a computer book we can't read. You are a ripoff outfit. Phoebe Sharp
