Lombix OS is a GNU/Linux OS one-man-for-fun linux distro based on the LFS project. With that sentence you should have an idea on what you could expect, not much. If you are looking for a new fancy cool Linux distro that can compete with Fedora, Ubuntu, Mint this is simply NOT what you are looking for. If you are looking for a robust, secure system as *BSD, well, again, this is NOT it. If you are looking for a simplistic linux distro which you can use to understand and experiment , in order to learn how to compile and explore unorthodox possibilities, well, then, Lombix might help. Lombix has been changing quite a lot, exploring different ideas, however there is a constant, the program "lmbx" to fetch compile and install almost all the packages that make Lombix OS. At the moment I am working in Lombix 2020 ( 2018 and 2019 are abandoned ), where I insist ( once again ) with the idea of having all packages in their own directories, so you can easily see which file belongs to what. Also, I am starting to include "containers" and "go" elements , as it is the last "hot thing". runc and containerd are included The images I provide are typical qcow2 images that you can run with qemu. At this moment I am not providing any installer as I cannot image who migth want to install this in their hard disc. For instance, if you download one of the images you can unxz <image.xz> qemu --enable-kvm -m 1024 <image> Note, the root default password is typically "lombix". If you want to compile one of the pacakges, for instance, coreutils lmbx -p coreutils The Compilation recipes are in /usr/share/lmbx --------------------------- LOMBIX2020.
