My OperaDay of the Distros - Still downloading ISO's
Sunday, December 14, 2008 8:43:08 AM
Tech News-
I currently have 24 ISO's, not including the ones I had already had. I want to make sure I make this very clear in my blog: I am by no means a "Linux Fanboy". I am if anything, an OpenSource fanboy. I'm going to be testing a wide variety of kernels, including Solaris, BSD, and Linux. I'm doing this to see what fits me best. I love the linux kernel, don't get me wrong, but I also love the idea of adaptability. I'll adapt to what fits my PC and my needs the most.
I'd also like to note, I was originally only doing stable testing, several dists had long out dated stables, so I'm also testing alpha and beta and rc's.
Also, I'm going to pick a distro, and from there, I'm going to be working with one of my associates to come up with a new distro. It's release date, and schedule have not been set, but a framework for what we'd like it to look like and do has been. This distro is not going to be publicly available, but you might start seeing it around. More on this to come.
So it seems I should have probably named this on going endevure the "Month of the Distros" since it seems that's about how long it's going to be for testing and everything else. Oh well, I'm enjoying the experience I'm gaining from this, it simply gives me a broader understanding of GNU applications, and several different kernels.

Happy Hacking,
