Can you help me create a distro?
All hardware support
Full busybox packages
SELinux in everything
snap package manager linked to apt
Maximum security. Must be hardened and full SELinux security.
readme: github.com/iaw9927/ArteusLinux/README.md
Include TinyX from Tiny Core Linux and openbox.
Please create a custom desktop from scratch with space themes and many (really good) themes.
If you can it'd be so great that people wouldn't have to rescue systems frequently!
Don't include dpkg and dpkg-deb. This cannot have Debian package managers.
This is from scratch! =)
Don't make it too big. You can also make a light version and a full version.
Make sure the liveCD is compressed to the absolute limit =)

so you want to create a new distro? Where did you stuck?
Or do you want us to create a distro for you?
Do you have a rescue related issue to solve?

I wanted you to create a distro because I got stuck on (broken) rootfs.
I will also help you. =)
The keyboard and language must be English (United States) because I live in the US.
I am also very experienced at Linux.
I need it to run on standard QEMU with ~512MB-768MB of RAM, virtio VGA, 2009 Q35.
I need it to not be too bloated with software, just the things a new and experienced Linux user would want.
The reason for QEMU is that I am hosting VMs on a Raspberry Pi 4 with normal QEMU. I need it to be very smooth and fast! I need a live CD for the public, development, testing, stable, rolling, LLTS (lifetime support) LTS (15 years), and old hardware all the way back to ~2004.
Please don't kill this distro ever! I would be sad if it did because millions of people would have installed it.
I need it because I am planning to install this on my PC.
Requested Architectures:
amd64
i486
aarch64 (arm64) + Raspberry Pi 3&4

Can you sign up for a account and help me if you are a guest? please? =)

I can't understand those. I requested for a "busybox"-based system, LFS also dosen't have "snap" which I needed.

needed systemd full version. Also, I need it to be extremely stable. LFS dosen't have a recent Live CD and I am trying to create a installer and Live CD. LFS does not have a Installer. Please add a "snap" GUI to add packages. Make this really easy for newbies. Make sure there is NO cons to this distro =)
LFS is for experienced users, and I do not like that it is source-code only.
Make sure this distro is a really easy switch from Windows to Linux. Do not use Windows's GUI.

So you're "very experienced" at Linux...but can't figure out the way past a corrupted file system??
The things a new user wants are far different than those an experienced user would want...yet somehow you want both at the same time??
Why? Old hardware is old and dies...it needs to support NEW hardware. If you want to customize it, then tell us what you have actually done to achieve your goals.
Doubt that seriously, since you're asking for something that's incredibly niche to begin with, and most people wouldn't install it on QEMU or VM, but either test on USB or install to hard drive.
And you're honestly asking others to do something that YOU WANT, instead of you doing anything to get it yourself? Since you want a distro just for you, your options are:

1. Do it yourself
2. Hire (AND PAY) someone to do it for you

Choose one. If you're doing it yourself, then please post actual questions that you have, telling us what you're doing, where you're stuck, etc. Otherwise, there is ample guidance for you to find on the kernel developers site, along with the source code you can examine and work with yourself.

Asking others to do things that you want, because you want will not get you much.
So you're 'very experienced' in Linux...but are complaining that LFS is for experienced users?? And that LFS doesn't have a 'live cd'?? Do you even understand what LFS *IS*??? And now you are DEMANDING things like "Don't use xxx", on the list of things others should do for you???

Good luck.

Ok, just support the new hardware, The reason why it isn't easy is because I am a Debian/Ubuntu/Raspbian user and most of my commands come from "external packages". And, we only need x86_64 + LiveCD. I need this distro to be released to the *public*, this is NOT a private distro. I know what LFS means (Linux from Scratch), it is a source code + LiveCD (it is old) 6.3 vs 10.x (Make sure this is based on Debian)

Linux from scratch may teach you what you need to know?

Instead of asking volunteers, uestions: paying, doing it yourself or even collaborating with others in the appropriate places seems?

Again: *WE ARE NOT GOING TO DO THIS FOR YOU*

If you want your 'own' distro, then you need to re-read the two choices given to you earlier. LFS doesn't have a 'live cd' that's current, and the latest version is 11.x, not 10. Since you claim to understand what LFS is, you then realize that you can put WHATEVER YOU WANT into it, by building it from source.

Either do it or hire someone to do it.

It's called Alpine.

This sounds fun to me. I'll work on it for USD $15k/month. PM me if interested.

Note your github link in original post is broken...

I got interested in this person and looked up its Github profile; looks like he renamed his repository.

https://github.com/IAW9927/ArteusOS

Pretty interesting source code he's got there.

Yes, almost. There were two empty repos created on github (ArteusOS - 3 commits - and ArteusRepo - 1 commit). There is no source code at all.
