Discuss about making a LFS distro to replace the old operating system some scripters were coding

LFS is a bit outdated, what about Tiny Core Linux?

That would be cheating though wouldn't it ;) What I believe you can do is make a persistent pendrive, modify it, then image it. Then distribute the image which can then be installed on the system by running tc-install.

I will use CorePlus, because I am limited to a wireless network.

Mabye, QEMU is slower but can write to .img and such, I also suggested it because it is free.

CorePlus then cut it down by removing what you don't need, removing is always easier than installing.

When is Scripters going to realize a custom 'Scripters OS' is never going to be viable? There's absolutely no benefit of giving up whatever OS (or even distro) people are using right now just to use a "Special Scripters distro" which is going to be abandoned in a week.

Your right, giving up a whole gigabyte of your hard drive space and a slot on your boot menu is so costly when the scripter themself could help develop the distro.

@Scarfacial
The project objective is making a less than 0.5GB distro that looks good, fast, and that has coding utils.
Chubbs, if I am wrong please correct me.

I could help if you guys like, I always use Linux and have a strong understanding of C/C++ and a "fair" understanding of Assembly.
