The CrystalEmu
About
CrystalEmu is a package selection designed for the generic target.
It is emulating CrystalROCK which is only available for ROCK Linux Trunk. Crystal ROCK (the target in Trunk) is based on CORE flags which do not exist in ROCK Linux 2.0. So it is only "emulating" the CORE flags by a package selection.
Distribution
A full CrystalEmu build is distributed in binary form as bootable CD-ROM (with installer) and as a set of gem packages:
CrystalEmu based on ROCK Linux 2.0.3
When to use
CrystalEmu is for you if any of the following applies:
- You want a stable Linux system
- You want a meaningful selection of packages without the thousands of choices possible in the Linux world
- You want a system that can be both easily tweaked or just left running with useful defaults
- You want to be able to easily update packages
How to use
Installing CrystalEmu is as easy as installing any ROCK based distribution:
- download and burn CD image
- boot from the CD
- follow instructions on the display
