I've been working on a new book:

If you want to build the book yourself, the instructions I recommend
are:
svn co svn://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/BLFS/branches/basic blfs-basic
cd blfs-basic
make
The output by default goes to ~/public_html/basic-blfs-book/
I have finished the initial editing of this book. It is at the above
URL. I consider it a beta version right now.
The last round of updates merged System V and systemd sections with
the appropriate designations. This will mean that there is only one
book, but that it is applicable to both versions of LFS.
I also finished converting internal references that are not in the
book to external references to the full BLFS.
I intend to announce the beta on Monday and think I can make a 1.0
(8.3?) release in about a month.
As always, feedback is appreciated.

Hi,
Getting started section:
A few typos:
"A sever is the simplier category. Generally this consistes of a web
server such"
sever simplier consistes.
Also, the links have double slashes (after stable), it does not make any
difference but may be worth changing
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable//xsoft/libreoffice.html
More typos
"Note that the last three commands inthe script are commented out."
inthe
"as separate partitons"
partitons
"pointed out by the scriptis where"
sriptis
"A last convenince"
convenince
In the Conventions section:
"
/|<REPLACED TEXT>|/
This form of text is used to encapsulate text that should be
modified and is not to be typed as seen, or copy and pasted. Note
that the square brackets are not part of the text, but should be
substituted for as well.
"
The brackets are not square, the example uses angle brackets.
typo
"For each package, any prerequsite packages"
prerequsite
"minimum prerequsite packages"
prerequsite
In the Notes on Building Software section:
typo
"not properly designated all the prerequsites needed to accomplish a
step in the Makefile."
prerequsites
The find command
"find /lib /usr/lib -not -path "*Image*" -a -name \*.la -delete"
does not have any openldap parameters.
Should this even be here? There is a big chapter in the book about .la
files...
In section Console Fonts:
"When you find a font which to wish to use, "
should probably be: "which you wish to use"
"it will fail if *bdftopcf* from has not been installed."
something is missing after "from".
Regards,
Eduardo
