For me, Linux is enough. Their desktop is excellence enough. Event remastering Knoppix is extremely simple. the last time I checked, Belenix could not be remastered with different content.

Would this be a reference distribution as in a sort of standards-base sort of thing? That'd be kind of interesting to consider to maintain some cross-distribution compatibility as more distributions crop up. I like the idea of providing a base reference distribution for other distributions to then easily derive from. +1 from me. cheers, steve -- stephen lau // [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 650.786.0845 | http://whacked.net opensolaris // solaris kernel development ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
