Pegasos ODW Project
Bluewall GNU/Linux ported to PegasoPPC

in category Operating Systems
proposed by Luis Francisco Araujo on 14th February 2006

Project Proposal
Bluewall is a GNU/Linux distribution developed mainly
to test BSD technology with Linux technology.

Bluewall is the first GNU/Linux distribution using the package manager system of NetBSD (pkgsrc) , and offers some radical features, like for example, it doesn\'t have any specific/default installer or installation procedure, so the user got plenty of freedom for choosing the way to install and configure the distro since the beginning.

Bluewall is only available for x86 at the moment, since it is the only box i have access to.

I would like to port and maintain the whole distribution to a PPC workstation and the PegasosPPC would be ideal for this.
