Quoting Alex Samad <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
why not go the debian/ubuntu method. Start with a base debian build, create a
custom deb package (sort of a meta package) that pulls in all the relevant
other debs and does a config. You could setup you own repo and your done.
Well another deb for each site to do the actual customer customisations.
Hi Alex,
yeah exactly...
I have actually checked out all the distros that I could and stumbled
upon DSL or damn-small-linux. I'm customising that.
That is a knoppix/debian derivative, that boots very easily and has a
lot of hardware support.
I think for the server version we are doing, it doesn't need a
repository.. but can use the dsl/knoppix/debian packages, you get to
pull down stuff off the debian repositories.
I'm thinking if somebody wants something outside the box, get a debian
package. Having used debian for sometime, i can't see any way to beat
their package repository. But linking to it seems to be pretty sensible.
Take care
David
