Welcome to the LNX-BBC project.

The LNX-BBC is a mini Linux-distribution, small enough to fit on a CD-ROM that has been cut, pressed, or molded to the size and shape of a business card.

LNX-BBCs can be used to rescue ailing machines, perform intrusion post-mortems, act as a temporary workstation, and perform many other tasks that we haven't yet imagined.

For more information about the LNX-BBC, check out our FAQ, or consult our many mailing lists.

If you are interested in contributing to the LNX-BBC project, or if you just like to tinker, there is more information on the GAR README page.

If you're just looking to download ISO images, have a look at our download page.

Track our Active Development

Although it has been a long time since our 2.1 release, development continues on the LNX-BBC. Since we use GNU Arch to house our development, tracking the myriad distributed branches can be a chore. To simplify this, we have created Planet LNX-BBC.

Planet LNX-BBC is made from a collection of RSS feeds that each developer has set up. A simple shell script generates the syndication files from an archive, and the popular Planet RSS aggregator builds the page.

You can also syndicate our entire aggregated feed for use with your own syndication tools.

So feel free to watch us hack!

2.1 Released!
