Kraken2
This was a fairly short lived version. Basically, it used the debian kernel and a lot of the binaries with basic dependency resolving and hardware detection support. Kraken2 was developed for a week or so. Development pretty much stopped at the beginnings of a package manager.
Kraken1
Live cd, built from scratch for optimal size and speed (ricer mentality I know, but here it counts). All in all, it's running reasonable with no X server, but for all the extra fun enhancements, it looks like X needs to be loaded somehow.
Features
kernel
- openmosix
- 2.6.17-om1
- builds
- rumored unstable with openmosix
- userland tools don't work
- leaning towards this right now
- it's already built to my liking
- 2.4.27 has problems on some machines
- i'm not going to be clustering this that much anyway
- Waldo/Guerilla filesystem will work here just as well as 2.4
- 2.4.27-om1
- already compiled, meaning not as small as it could be
- ancient
- userland tools work
- 2.6.17-om1
- openssi
- 2.6.10
- hard to find
- working with 2.6 and openssi
- hard to get working
- very strange proc issues
- lots of userland tools need to be compiled with libcluster support
- overall, lots to deal with
- 2.6.10
basic system
- busybox
- used for majority of tools
- build by hand
- has almost everything needed
ssh/scp/sshd
- dropbear
- for ssh and friends
- currently a static multicall binary
- dependent on uclibc, glibc is already present due to busybox
- doesn't support dynamic proxies
- openssh
- it works
- not *that* big
browser
- links
- using version 2 for fb graphics
- blue screens (literally) on exit
- firefox
- bigger
- requires X
- more complient
windows compatibility
- qemu
- not fully tested
- not friendly with vga=791
- wine
- dependent on X
- don't need to login to the system to use the apps installed locally
window manager
- something small and quick
- fluxbox?
- joe's wm
- anything else?
- ratpoison?
- xmonad? (personal favorite) Jmcarthur 09:40, 29 July 2009 (CDT)

- nc thanks to busybox
- nmap
- tcpdump
