|
LRs-Linux 0.2.6 released. LRs-Linux is a source distribution based on Linux From Scratch, except that packages compile directly from a freely downloadable CD so you don't need to have a working Linux system prior to installation. Also unlike Linux From Scratch, the installation is mostly automated and it includes GUI packages and a desktop environment (KDE 3.0). Get the ISO image from here: LRs-Linux-V.0.2.6.iso. To find out more, visit the project's home page (available in English, German, French, Italian and Turkish) and its Installation Guide. If you'd like to support the project, you can purchase the official CD for €15. As alway, our LRS-Linux page is up-to-date.

| About LRs-Linux
|
| LRs-Linux is based upon Linux From Scratch (LFS). In contrast to LFS and most common distros, LRs Linux has the ability to compile directly from the CD. This means that binaries can be natively compiled for the target host during the install, enhancing the performance of the resultant system. The install process is largely automated.

Interview: Bernd Eller, LRs GNU/Linux |
|
Linuxzone.cz has interviewed Bernd Eller, the project leader of LRs GNU/Linux: "I started with the development of LRs in January, 2001. My goals for LRs were found real fast too: it should be able to install a processor-optimized, complete Linux From Scratch with X and KDE, plus a few console-based utilities overnight. My selection of packages was first limited to all the packages I absolutely needed, which was soon not enough..." This is the original interview (in Slovak) by Linuxzone.cz and this is the English translation on the LRs distribution's web site.

LRs - Linux Project Closed |
|
The LRs - Linux project has been closed. Not much detail is given on the distribution's home page, but it's ironic that the project is over soon after it was given space and exposure in the latest edition of the UK-based Linux Magazine. LRs - Linux was an interesting project based on Linux From Scratch with automated installation, inclusive of X-window and KDE and without the requirement to have an existing Linux installation. It seems that, as the developers' enthusiasm evaporated so did the promising project.
