If there is any software guy who is willing/enthusiastic and wants to contribute for making a Linux Distribution, please mail to
[email protected] or to the group mentioned above.
The plan is to build a i386 based linux system with emphasis on c/c++ development tools. Please remember, the entire project is
a Non Profit and will be carried out in the truest spirit of GPL. It will be a group effort. The motto will be to implement the best
idea irrespective of who came up with first. This project is the brain child of Rajesh Khumanthem.
Of late I got some mails from guys who just started trying out Linux for the first time. If anybody wants Linux Installation CDs, mail me
your postal address, I will burn them on blank CDs and send you by post for _no_ charges.
You can choose from
Red Hat - 6.2/7.1/8.0/9.0,
Fedora Core - 1/2,
Red Hat Enterprise - 3/4 and
Suse - 9.1/9.2/9.3.
