Hello

Well I worked tirelessly on the Ubuntu based security orientated Linux distribution of mine.

Got it at least 85% complete. Burnt a copy. Found out that it was 846MB, so now I am starting all over again.

This time I will be building my Linux distribution from Debris.

Since I have a lot of things to get through this year, including this Linux distribution, don’t expect another public release for a while.

Thanks for bearing with me,

Panarchy

PS: In case you were wondering what I am busy doing, I have made a TODO list;

  1. Train for Industry Certifications
  2. Install 9 operating systems on 1 hard-drive
  3. Make all boot-menus work
  4. Make a GRUB boot disc that will allow me to boot into any of my 9 OSs
  5. Design my business card
  6. Design my website
  7. Create a Linux distribution (have remade it from scratch around 7 or 8 times, and I have just started building it from scratch again, built from Debris this time)
  8. Create a Windows PE LiveCD
  9. Create a Mac OS X LiveCD
  10. Learn how to program

BTW: What’s more, (in case that wasn’t enough already!), I will also be working full-time.  So if there isn’t another public release for 2 or 3 months, then… well, you will know why!

Hi

First update in almost a month!

Well I’ve been hard at work on my distribution for the last few days, mainly with planning. Today I started with a fresh copy and have started removing packages.

I read about each and every package before deciding whether or not to remove it. I’m basically removing everything not specifically needed… except the themes.

Should be able to release my distribution by the 30th.

Keep you posted!
