Linux

My new linux distro!!

Hello friends,
I could not keep up my promise that i made earlier that I will keep the blog updated very often. I was totally busy for the past 30 days. I was preparing for RHCE exam last month. During this period, i indulged myself in studying linux kernel internals and recompilation process. As a result i came up with my own linux distribution. :) I named it a SPARKZ LINUX. Sparkz is build based on fedora linux core 3. In the begining, i experienced few troubles in creating the bootable CD. Now i have fixed the issue myself. I started constructing this distro aiming the endusers who is very much sticked to Microsoft distro's for multimedia support. I am now providing the final touches to Sparkz this week. I will surely publish the complete documentation and new features very soon.

Cheers,
Pradeep.
