What is BYO Linux?
Can you answer yes to any of these questions?
-Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a Linux distribution
where you knew what every file or directory was for?
-Do you dislike downloading applications for your particular distribution?
-When you want to remove an rpm, do you find that you can't because it
will break a dependency?
-Do you think Linux distributions, in general, have to much junk you
won't ever use but you can't remove things because your distribution won't
function without them?
-Do you want to learn to configure Linux without using vendor tools?
-Are you just plain curious how things work?
If this sounds like you, you've came to the right place. Together, we'll
create your own personal Linux distribution. You decide what goes in and
what doesn't. We'll compile applications from the authors original source
code, not code tinkered with by a commercial distribution. Not only will
you gain a much better understanding of how linux works and a little bit
of programming knowledge on the side, you'll take pride in the fact that
you did it yourself. Let's get started!
