LFS was one of the most interesting things I did :D. And yeah. I believe
ABS
must be a part of every Linux curriculum. http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/
++1 :)
I am wondering if we need customized distros. It would actually work better
if we had a StudentForce GNU/Linux or something like that with a ground up
package manager and 0 config tools (so that people dont depend on a single
tool for grow up the *nix way) . Here we can allocate a package or two to
every interested student and watch it progress.. I am sure it will grow
into
a huuuuge distro. Of course we can have trusted users, community repos etc.
I love the Archlinux project for that.
I am recommending bcoz, only if student understands the full compiling
process they can work on individual modules effectively. They need not
customize the distro.. but, they can atleast know how to compile it from
source and make it running..
Personally i feel, there are lot of customizations needed for the Linux, to
match microsoft.. probably high level customization.. It would also help
in localising the distros
