I've built my system from scratch using Linux From Scratch  (I'm an 
ex-Windows user and I figured build from scratch was the best way to 
learn)   The only problem is that there's no nice and easy package 
install facility.  I'll try the Makefile and let you know.  It probably 
won't be until tomorrow though.

Thanks very much for your help, it's appreciated.
