mwakat linux

a bunch of pieced puzzle pieces pieced again

maintaining

mwakat linux doesnt really have to be maintained.
it is not so independent, as it relies on a external package manager maintained by alpine linux

about

mwakat linux is a "manual", KISS Linux based distro that aims to be very small and usable.

the idea is to... umm

here is what mwakat linux offers:

• a minimal / [cliche]
• a KISS Linux base
• the apk package manager
• the situation init
• a static busybox + toybox userland
• libressl over openssl(?)

in this repository is a set of shell scripts that are used to setup the mwakat linux distro.

scripts

the scripts to build this stuff are modular and simple, so its easy doing whatever you want in the process

im still working on "agnosticizing" this stuff, so if someone actually finds my code useful, they could use it for themselves :)

install

1. clone this repository

git clone https://codeberg.org/chld/mwakatlinux --depth 1

2. run the create-mwakat command

sh ./create-mwakat

3. profit read the lines below

post-install

this is important!

the main wrapper create-mwakat doesnt run any commands that really set up the system for you.

after installing, youd might still need to:

• install a kernel
• install a bootloader
• install firmware
• install a device manager

you know, the basic stuff.

distro

requirements

• a working internet connection
• a linux ISO like the gentoo ISO

goals

• scripts work
• installable to real hardware
• unified /bin
• hybrid userland
• ...( using baseutils )

a working input+drm stack without:

• openrc sysinit
• eudev

status

• tested

i have personally been able to install mwakat linux from the scripts provided!
