Ultimately, I'd like to build by own Software Defined Radio for Amateur Radio contacts around the world. For that I feel a need for a computer and operating system I can understand deeply. I don't have the time to create my own operating system for that purpose, but FLOSS seems like it solves that part of the problem.
Patrick,
If you aren't aware of susestudio, you need to be.
It is a great solution which is tightly interconnected to OBS. It is ideal for what you describe in my opinion.
You can start with a openSUSE 13.2 "gold master" distro, then add or replace packages (including the kernel) by pulling new/different ones from OBS.

Thank you, Greg. I was aware of SUSE Studio. I had a feeling it might be what I want to use, but I've just begun my exploration of the openSUSE ecosystem.
On the SUSE Studio home page, they say "Sign in or create an account.", but don't provide a link to the usual "Terms and Conditions". Is this a for-profit offering?
Going from memory: if you're happy to use the opensuse logo on boot up and pull exclusively for obs (or manually uploaded open-source software), then susestudio.com is free to use.. Alternatively you can license ($$) susestudio and use it with less restrictions. Greg -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
