Yet I wasn't ready to give up, so I forked the codebase and Redcore Linux was born. However, after just two successful releases, real life commitments got in the way and the team behind it disbanded.
#Gentoo distro install
Gradually, we rebased the distribution on Gentoo Linux exclusively and it became a lot better, easy to install and quick to run. "I decided to change that and I got involved in Kogaion's development. I kept tuning it to my liking to eliminate stuff I don't use, and I guess I really liked the result, because after that I stopped distro-hopping." Mamut made an exception for Kogaion Linux, attracted by its efforts to make Gentoo easier, but "when I tried it, it felt very rough and unpolished," he says. However, at the end of those weeks, I had a system which I built from scratch. "It took a very long time to install – and I mean a very, very long time, about two weeks, since computers weren't that powerful back then. We offer a bleeding edge operating system that is both stable and reliable. We aim to deliver the best 'out of the box' user experience by providing the latest open source technologies in an elegant format. "It was like nothing I ever used before," Mamut recalls. Sabayon is a beginner-friendly Gentoo-based open-source Linux distribution. Sabayon Linux (previously RR4 Linux and RR64 Linux) a Linux distribution developed by Fabio Erculiani, based on and fully compatible with Gentoo Linux. Then, 10 years ago, Mamut discovered Gentoo Linux.
"It felt good," Mamut says, and he went on to create an installer for an online TV solution and to compile various packages as he hopped between distros.
#Gentoo distro Patch
I soon found myself helping others fix and configure their systems." Mamut went on to help found the first Linux User Group in his city and made his first contribution: a patch for the chat client Pidgin. I broke the system on purpose more times than I can remember, then tried to fix it. Naturally, I started tinkering with it – not programming but trying different configurations.
#Gentoo distro software
But as time passed, I started learning about the system, and I was exposed to the free software movement. "Back then," he recalls, "the free aspect did not matter much. Later, when he bought his first home computer, he thought it natural to install Linux himself. Unusually, his high school ran Mandrake Linux, one of the earliest user-friendly distributions, rather than Windows. Mamut discovered free software around the turn of the millennium.
With Redcore featured in this month's download DVD, Mamut agreed to answer our questions. In response, Ghiunhan Mamut, a member of RogentOS, created Redcore Linux. However, after five years of development, the RogentOS Development Group, Kogaion's owner, discontinued it in November 2016. It is a successor to Kogaion Linux, which in later releases was also based on Gentoo. Redcore Linux ( Figure 1) is a Gentoo derivative designed to give users some of the optimization of Gentoo with an easier install.
