Hello everybody!
I am interested to know if somebody is using a BSDesque Linux distribution
around here. By that I mean, distributions that have a -stable core system and
then a ports package system for the rest.
I have been using Slackware for some years and I consider it very close to
that. The official install has a "core" (not exactly a real core, but a
software base that is official and not intended to change much within a single
release). Then you can run sbotools on it (or a similar solution) and be
creative with how you manage all the extras.
The reason I am asking is because Slackware -stable's core is aging, I'd need
something newer for certain purposes, and I don't want to run -current or any
other pure rolling distribution.
I am currently using - guess what - BSD's as replacements in some systems, but
I actually need a Linux kernel for certain cases.
Ideas and comments appreciated. Let's keep the ball rolling.
