You start with, say, a Linux system. Put the sources there and use the Linux compiler -
gcc to compile the sources. You should start with the compiler suite itself, (some) standard libraries, the linker, etc.. This is what hicksd8 means by "toolchain". Now you have a SysV-C-compiler that is compiled fo Linux. This is called "seeding", because ideally a compiler should be able to compile its own sources. That is: when you write a C-compiler in C you write it, then take another C-compiler and compile it, take that executable and use it to compile it again the original sources, then use that executable to compile it again. You then have a code that is compiled by the executable resulting from the very code its source has produced. From then on you use (the compiled) version X-1 to compile version X, etc.. Here you do basically the same for the whole OS.

Of course you build from scratch. You start with the sources for the OS and you want to have a compiled, running and installed OS. That is as much "from scratch" as it can get.
I hope this helps.

ARCHIVE(8) InterNetNews Documentation ARCHIVE(8)
NAME
archive - Usenet article archiver
SYNOPSIS
archive [-cfr] [-a archive] [-i index] [-p pattern] [input]
DESCRIPTION
archive makes copies of files specified on its standard input. It is normally run either as a channel feed under innd or by a script
before news.daily is run.
archive reads the named input file, or standard input if no file is given. The input is taken as a sequence of lines; blank lines and
lines starting with a number sign ("#") are ignored. All other lines should specify the token of an article to archive. Every article is
retrieved from a token, and the Xref: header is used to determine the target file in the archive directory. You can limit the targets
taken from the Xref: header with the -p option.
Files are copied to a directory within the archive directory, patharchive in inn.conf (or some other directory given with -a). The default
is to create a hierarchy that mimics a traditional news spool storage of the given articles; intermediate directories will be created as
needed. For example, if the input token represents article 2211 in the newsgroup comp.sources.unix, archive will by default store the
article as:
comp/sources/unix/2211
in the archive area. This can be modified with the -c and -f options.
OPTIONS
-a archive
If the -a flag is given, its argument specifies the root of the archive area, instead of patharchive in inn.conf.
-c If the -c flag is given, directory names will be flattened as described under the -f option. Then, additionally, all posts will be
concatenated into a single file, appending to that file if it already exists. The file name will be "YYYYMM", formed from the current
time when archive is run. In other words, if given an article in comp.sources.unix on December 14th, 1998, the article would be
appended to the file:
comp.sources.unix/199812
in the archive area.
Articles will be separated by a line containing only "-----------".
-f If the -f flag is used, directory names will be flattened, replacing the slashes with the periods. In other words, article 2211 in
comp.sources.unix will be written to:
comp.sources.unix/2211
in the archive area.
-i index
If the -i flag is used, archive will append one line to the file index for each article that it archives. This line will contain the
destination file name, the Message-ID: header, and the Subject: header of the message, separated by spaces. If either header is
missing (normally not possible if the article was accepted by innd), it will be replaced by "<none>". The headers will be transformed
using the same rules as are used to generate overview data (unfolded and then with tabs, CR, and LF replaced by spaces).
-p pattern
Limits the targets taken from the Xref: header to the groups specified in pattern. pattern is a uwildmat(3) pattern matching
newsgroups that you wish to have archive handle.
-r By default, archive sets its standard error to pathlog/errlog. To suppress this redirection, use the -r flag.
RETURN VALUE
If the input is exhausted, archive will exit with a zero status. If an I/O error occurs, it will try to spool its input, copying it to a
file. If there was no input filename, the standard input will be copied to pathoutgoing/archive and the program will exit. If an input
filename was given, a temporary file named input.bch (if input is an absolute pathname) or pathoutgoing/input.bch (if the filename does not
begin with a slash) is created. Once the input is copied, archive will try to rename this temporary file to be the name of the input file,
and then exit.
EXAMPLES
A typical newsfeeds(5) entry to archive most source newsgroups is as follows:
source-archive!
:!*,*sources*,!*wanted*,!*.d
:Tc,Wn
:<pathbin>/archive -f -i <patharchive>/INDEX
Replace <pathbin> and <patharchive> with the appropriate paths.
