Hi RP I would love to join your effort. Am really interested in making a 686 version of openSUSE and possibly putting some additional performance tweaks in here and there (Con Kolivas Kernel patches. In general I would also want to create a 1 CD installation source and add synaptic to the base and link it to an apt repository. That way all the rest can then be installed after install. In theory this should be doable. I have previously created the Yoper distro from scratch optimised for 686 and doing the same with existing rpm's should certainly be possible/doable. Have started 2 days ago :) .... I can also offer a common buildserver for this project on a 100Mbit network/website. Anyone else interested?

to recompile for my own machine, 686 vs. 386, and possibly do a couple other tweaks. If there's no tutorial - is there one on compiling SUSE? Anything else I need to know? RP
