Can you give me an example usage of the "configure" script with some
explanations if you have some times.
http://linuxfromscratch.org/ might be the best place to look for
details on bootstrapping an entire OS yourself.
Another resource is Cross Linux From Scratch
https://trac.clfs.org/wiki/read
Although their focus is bootstrapping the OS from different types of
machine architectures,
their material is formatted similarly to Linux From Scratch, and can
give you other insights
into the type of project you want to do.

Thank you really much. (My message was cut, and i understand why. Maybe
I had not used a right subject too.)
Except for GCC, i exactly know how to do. What i need is the whole set
of variables and options to build an (almost) minimalist, (really)
portable and pure (evidently) generic x64 GCC 7.5.0 with good support
for C and C++ (sparsely "old" and almost recent) with the "configure"
script and make, to run my operating system with GCC from RAM, under
multiple x64 computers.
I think i can understand anything, for example:
i will use my USB storages without filesystem with encryption. Because
there is a heavy hardware/software layer with today's computers.
I don't encounter any problems to understand the other GNU softwares or
the creation of my operating system.
I try to understand everything in GCC, but i don't like proprietary
hardware or software so i don't want to interest myself in all the
things from GCC... I really want something simple. I mean for me, it's
really hard to interest myself in proprietaries things. And Phew! ;D
There really is a lot of those things.
But any globals hints are welcome.
I loved GNU since forever. I am a passionate. I just try to save me some
time like i explained, then of course to learn, and to get some some
latest good help.
Thank you again, and if you can't help me, i understand the answer may
take some times anyway ! No problem.
Have a nice working
