Why, you might ask, would anyone want to build their own operating system? It's really about being in control and knowing what's going on.In the next few paragraphs I'll explain what motivated me to take on this project, the recipe I used, and what I like about it.

" Ok, sounds great.. however, I think the author should have given FreeBSD a go, he notes the Linux distro's he tried, and alas, never thought to give FreeBSD a go.. the /usr/ports is really what he's wanting in the first place.. He'd not have needed to look any further.

You know, everytime someone brings up linux someone just can't help but start going "TRY FreeBSD NOW!" or different words of the same message. I don't think some of you people understand. Some of us just don't WANT to try FreeBSD. I know I won't try it intill FreeBSD gets these things: A fully graphical installer(sorry, I don't have time to mess around with command line installers. A easy to use GUI that is installed WITH the FreeBSD installation(again, I don't have much time to mess around with a commandline). If FreeBSD gets these two simple things, sure, I'll give it a go. But for now, I'll stick with SuSE.
