Line 18: Line 43:
DyneBolic is a branch developed out of the ''Bolic1'' project, started by the hackers from the [[http://www.ecn.org/loa]LOA hacklab] as a small sized CD distribution: Bolic1 offers a console interface and a complete suite of handy hacking tools, if you're a hacker you'll never feel alone with it in your pocket (while if you're a wannabe, to have it represents a good way to start). DyneBolic takes the core of that distribution adding Xwindows, hardware device automatic detection, easy to setup networking, streaming tools like our software MuSE, multimedia tools like our video software FreeJ and many other goodies. === redistribute ===
