Aryalinux is a GNU/Linux Operating System built from source code of the various component packages it consists of unlike most Linux distributions which are built by remastering or modifying some other distribution. Apart from being the distro that AryaLinux is, it's also a platform that one can use to build a complete distribution from source code. AryaLinux used bash scripts called build scripts to build everything from scratch and uses a dependency resolution and script execution framework called alps to build the whole system from ground up. What started off as a project to take BLFS to the next level and build a full fledged distro out of LFS/BLFS is now a unique distro that you can use to build your own distro.
Features
- Built from scratch. AryaLinux is not remastered or spun or forked out of any other Linux project
- Source based Package Manager - ALPS. Although alps is not strictly speaking a package manager it behaves like one and makes the whole process of building complete desktop environments from source a cake walk
- The live media supports multiple languages
- XFCE, Mate, KDE and LXQt supported. The XFCE, KDE and LXQT spins development is in progress and would be released in the next few weeks
- Most packages in AryaLinux are near latest(except few that are not updated either for backward compatibility or stability in mind)
- Beyond BLFS AryaLinux provides the AryaLinux installer so that you can provide an installer with your Aryalinux based live media
- 32-bit and 64-bit

Very interesting Linux Distro, build tools, and project. I downloaded aryalinux-xfce-2017-x86_64.iso. I'm running the live iso in Vbox to explore the details and perform an install. Do you provide the passwords for users aryalinux and root? May I suggest providing them in the form of a text called "passwords" on the desktop? Sorry if I missed them in an obvious place.
