Hello, my name is Daniel Noji : )



I have been using Linux for quite some time, but I am not knowledge
about how Linux works =93under the hood=94 nor how to build a Linux syste=
m
from scratch. I=92ve been reading/following your guide on building Pocket
Linux systems and found it much more successful than Linux From Scratch.
But if I wanted to extend Pocket Linux by moving it to a more spacious
hard disk, how would I do that? Would I have to install an empty hard
disk into the host system? And aside from the Linux kernel, file
utilities, device files, and configurations, are there any other
essentials that are required for the most minimal foundation to build a
full-fledged Linux system upon?



I=92d appreciate any insight you could give me, thanks :D
