Hello,
Could you people possibly tell me a bit about this project I cant find anythin any where! how does it all work?

So what does this programme do for me (in lay mans terms!!) whay should I install it and also how hard will it be to install and set up?
thanx a million

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
If you're very unskilled, you possibly will have to read a lot to install hardened linux because it is for advanced users. If you want an easy linux distribution with a graphical user interface and such things, you should try Ubuntu, SuSE, Kubuntu or such things.
Our distributions main-target is to run in high-security environments on servers, firewalls, vpn-gateways and such things. But you can use it as firewall system at home or such things too, if you want.

Hardened Linux installation is like Slackware Linux installation. You can find more information here: http://www.slackbook.org/html/installation.html.
