I don't think, that this kind of a project is going to help you much in your career. Get a project in which you would learn something more than just sorting dependancies between packages and doing a make. If you can actually make an easy to use install system or yet another package management system, that would be much better. You can do a project in net-snmp, Java mail API (build a client/server) or use the NNTP protocol to do something interesting. I mean just go to sourceforge.net and get a few ideas from the interesting applications hosted there. IMO that would be a much better project for you to do and learn from.

Or why not pickup a dead project and survive it.

I dont think linuxfromscratch thingy will be good for a final year project. While there are several applications we need applications for Indian language computing. Do consider developing and joining other indic language projects for faster localization of GNU/Linux software.
