It's quite a good website and howto, as well. My firewall/gateway machine at
home was built from scratch (I had way too much time on my hands last summer)
and it's a lot of fun to do.

The other interesting project, for those wanting to learn more, but not
necessarily wanting to tinker with their entire system, is the Bootdisk-HOWTO
-- since that is just building a mini-linux setup that fits on a couple of
floppies. :-)

Cheers,
Malcolm
