Asking for help and the FAQ

The Beyond LinuxFromScratch book is designed to carry on from where the LFS book leaves off. Unlike the LFS book, it isn't designed to be followed straight through. Reading the Which sections of the book? part of this chapter should help guide you through the book.

Please read most of this part of the book carefully as it explains quite a few of the conventions we use throughout the book.
