A Linux Distribution with a non-GNU Userland created by afroraydude

Official site

Why?

I wanted to see how far I could go with this

Download

The current version is: v0.1-alpha

Downloads will be available on my repo found here

More details about the system

The system will use uspm as its package manager, with the default mirror as my own mirror found here. It will be shell-only for now.

Special thanks

dslm4515@github for making the MUSL-LFS guidebook that Wombat Linux was first built with.

Alpine Linux for being musl-based and being a general guide for any extra libs/programs I wanted to add

Void Linux for all the patches. Seriously.
