Free Software is software that does not impose restrictions on users to run, understand, modify, and distribute modified versions of the software. It is a community movement that advocates that software and documentation should be developed in this philosophy so that the phenomenon of sharing knowledge in the development of science is also in technological development. The “Free Software Movement” was announced by Richard Matthew Stallman on September 27, 1983 and started in January 1984. … article.olduse.net/771@mit-eddie.UUCP Richard […]

Yesterday, we tried to run the microphone that my friend uses for podcast recording on his computer with Pardus 21 installed. With pulseaudio, the microphone […]
In the last section, we explained how to create and test an initramfs image. In this section, we will explain how to create a minimal root directory (rootfs) and the differences between static and dynamic files. Static and Dynamic compilation A static file does not need any dependencies, while a dynamic compiled file has dependencies. The ldd command is used to determine whether a file is dynamic or not. All dynamic compiled […]
In the first part, we compiled busybox and linux kernel. In this section, we will create the initramfs image. Creating Initramfs Initramfs is the first file loaded into memory at system boot. The /init file in this file is run by our kernel and the boot process is started. Let's create an initramfs image using the busybox file that we compiled as static in the previous example. To do this, by creating a new directory […]
In this article, we will create our own simple minimal linux distribution to understand how linux distributions work.

In this article, I will tell you how to install flatpak packages. What is Flatpak? The common problem of linux distributions today is that applications are packaged separately by each distribution and try to keep it up to date.

As a solution to this problem, the flatpak package system […]
