Obviously Hannah Montana Linux.
Don’t run Linux, run the OG Unix. Don’t use a desktop, get a mainframe.
The one you toggle into the switches on a PiDP-11.
Kali Linux as daily driver
Make them use an old, abandoned distro.
Like Brazil’s own Knoppix fork Kurumin.
I exclusively use the Hannah Montana KDE fork out of spite.
Knoppix! I forgot that existed. Wow, what a blast from the past. I remember trying that out in high school. 3.2 or 3.3. Something like that. I just knew it took a long time to download via dial-up.
Alguém devia ressuscitar o Kurumin
Em espírito, eu concordo contigo
Olhando lógicamente, não teria sentido, já existem tantas Distros, metade das quais são só forks de Debian e/ou Ubuntu que mudam quase nada. :S
The kernel source code.
Not Linux, but 9front or that thing they wrap the gnu Mach kernel in.
I feel like a historian reading hieroglyphics trying to understand this 😭
Nixos, Legacy of the greybeard.
Any BSD folk 'round here?
Former. Migrated to linux 20+ years ago because of…Flash support. Didn’t realize back then how quickly Flash would disappear and FreeBSD only supported it via its linux binary compatibility, which stopped working at that time.
Yo.
Wouldn’t recommend it for novices, but I’ve just never had a better server distro, they perfected it.
As long as you have compatible hardware, it’s great. I didn’t bother researching when I built a new server and ended up switching to debian since bsd didn’t support my nic.
Gentoo obviously :
To install, easy just get this iso, with no GUI, then whip your hard drive, create partition, copy the Linux core, config your core based on the hardware technical details of every components you have and will use, compile it, add extra core drivers, compile them, add all the software you’ll use to get a GUI (Desktop environment), compile them,. Now you can finally restart without usb stick! Add all the software, configure and compile them. And for every update of every software you may check the details to be sure it doesn’t break your config.
Easy no? It just took you a month to get all the steps right!Gentoo is a little easier nowadays. It has binary packages and you can use any old Linux live CD you prefer to do the install :)
Ya there’s Arch. There’s NixOS. There’s still Slackware.
But have you heard of 9front?
9front is useless. You won’t be gaming or working with it.
Mostly, you’d learn how operating systems are constructed.Or DoomOS or DoomLinux. It’s a basic linux system where DOOM is the shell.
I forked this and tried to get it running. Learned some interesting things. Still doesn’t work for me. :]
https://github.com/fl64/DoomLinuxUsing DoomLinux to mess with someone would be hilarious. Plug the USB into the back of their computer then alter the boot order so it prioritises USB. Each time they start their computer it boots into DOOM.
We used to do this back in the day with Win95.
You could change their shell to Notepad or something, and then that’s all the computer would run.
It was a slightly moar advanced trick than stealing their mouse ball.@dbtng @gwilikers why not just adding DOOM to autoexec.bat?
Um … because its windows. Really. Almost downvoted you for that.
@gwilikers @dbtng also it only runs on bios cd, so will not boot form usb even if mbr supported
@gwilikers @dbtng but it will not boot because of missing csm/mbr support. Need EFI version (basicly you may run doom on pure EFI without OS, as it supports everything needed and even more)
I think what you are saying is that the project I linked won’t work for USB boot on a new EFI system. I imagine your assessment about EFI is correct, but I’m mostly interested in virtualized systems.
Their are several DOOM linux things out there. The version I’m working on builds out with busybox.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asnXWOUKhTAMy eventual intent is to use DOOM agents as a load tester.
I’d like the ISO to boot, look for a local game, and join a bot to deathmatch.
And then the testing metric would be a simple count. How many dooms can it run?
I have lots of projects. I might finish that one some day.
9front is not useless!
you can run catclock.

No grey in beard? Shame 🤓
