[dyne:bolic]

this page is part of the documentation available on the [dyne:bolic] distribution, you can find a project overview on http://dynebolic

here it follows a "making-of" documentation, which can be updated by anyone involved.

in fact those pages are freely editable by anyone, but please don't change them just for experiment. if you want to better know what is a wiki read HelpForBeginners and experiment on WikiSandBox.

DYNEBOLIC 1.0 :: proposed software upgrades and documentation

GNU/Linux based live bootable CD-ROM

DyneBolic is a really cool Blasting live bootable CD-ROM, this means is a neat disk you put in your cd reader and reboot the machine, having a complete operative system recognizing your sound, video, TV and network cards and running only with Free Software. DyneBolic works without the need of harddisks, you need just some low profile requirements (see below) and you'll get back Good Software

This distribution is an effort to give everyone the possibility to discover how GNU/Linux and free software taste better than any other operative system; while it is also a way to support research in free software development: if you think that any customization of Dyne owned
