As an old-time user of Linux, I'm surprised by the dis-interest in the idea of collecting a short, sweet, succinct set of minimal scripts with the intention of demonstrate the building a new Linux instance. Linux is all about building ones own distribution, always has been .. unless you have someone else do it for you.

But this is not a distro. Its more of a porting kit.

It used to be that the only way to use Linux, was to use scripts like this. Well, it point of fact: all distros are constructed of such mechanics. This is a very minimal one. The next step would be to put a 10_compiler.sh step in the pipeline, and then build the kernel again.

This project seems to be a new, fresh look at the game, I suppose. The linux-from-scratch approach is also a good way to break in newly built hardware in my experience, too.

If you've got nothing but these scripts, you can .. continuing the tradition .. continue to put Linux .. just about anywhere.

So, like I said .. a porting kit. Linux All Things.
