I too did this, around 2003/4 It was during my great "Try all the Linux" period, and I had trouble with it compiling on my slackware system, but it compiled just fine on my red hat system (before RHEL) It was a toy for me, I built it just to see if I could, built it a few times, but was running red hat or slackware as my daily driver. During that period I also tried the BSDs, Free, Dragonfly, Net, and Open It was so much fun getting the hang of how each OS differed, the nuances, the ins and outs. (FTR, I switched to Ubuntu late 2005, and haven't moved since - apt is/was the best thing since recycled electrons)
