The reason given is: Fedora Linux Asahi Remix has been well-supported for a while now; some alternatives like Asahi Gentoo are also relatively well-supported. It's quite inaccurate that they all get "Unknown"s. The Asahi project previously used Arch Linux ARM, which seems to get no mention here.
Void Linux [3] is an independent Linux distribution that uses the X Binary Package System (XBPS) package manager, which was designed and implemented from scratch, and the runit init system. Excluding binary kernel blobs , a base install is composed entirely of free software (but users can access an official non-free repository to install ...
In addition to the BSDs, a few Linux distributions have implemented similar infrastructure, including Gentoo's Portage, Arch's Arch Build System (ABS), CRUX's Ports and Void Linux's Templates. The main advantage of the ports system when compared with a binary distribution model is that the installation can be tuned and optimized according to ...
Gentoo Linux (pronounced / ˈ dʒ ɛ n t uː / JEN-too [3]) is a Linux distribution built using the Portage package management system.Unlike a binary software distribution, the source code is compiled locally according to the user's preferences and is often optimized for the specific type of computer.
See comparison of Linux distributions for a detailed comparison. Linux distributions that have highly modified kernels — for example, real-time computing kernels — should be listed separately. There are also a wide variety of minor BSD operating systems, many of which can be found at comparison of BSD operating systems .
FireballISO (or "Fireball") is a VMware virtual appliance that builds a security-hardened Live CD containing a stripped-down custom version of Gentoo Linux.The original intent of the project is focused on providing firewall and networking services to a network, but the appliance can be customized in almost limitless ways to build bootable ISOs that can do many different things.
CRUX is a Linux distribution mainly targeted at expert computer users. It uses BSD-style initscripts and utilizes a ports system similar to a BSD-based operating system. Chimera Linux: Chimera Linux is a Linux distribution created by Daniel Kolesa, a semi-active contributor to Void Linux. It uses a userland and core utilities based on FreeBSD.
A light-weight Linux distribution a Linux distribution that uses lower memory and processor-speed requirements than a more "feature-rich" Linux distribution. The lower demands on hardware ideally result in a more responsive machine , and allow devices with fewer system resources (e.g. older or embedded hardware ) to be used productively.
