1. Introduction

1.1 Subject

I made the LEM distro (aka Linux EMbedded) in February 1999. It is a tiny linux distribution i used with some x86 hardware to make a touch panel Graphical User Interface to audio, video, conferencing and polling hardware for ERE Acoustic. It is not hard to make a small linux from scratch. However, i made this document to spare people losing time wrestling with many (usefull) docs and howtos. This document describes how the LEM distro has been made.

1.3 History

This document is started for a while but has never been published before v0.3 because lacking a good structure. Recently, i have discovered 's Linux From Scratch Howto, and decided to rewrite this document using the structure from the LFS-HOWTO. Luc Herman's and Paul Moody also granted me to use their jobs to improve this document.
