Linux ask game

1 - what was your first distro? 2 - what was your biggest linux fuckup? 3 - have you ever run rm / on real hardware? 4 - do you dual boot or have a secondary machine with windows? 5 - did you change your default shell? 6 - are you afraid of git? 7 - what was the first machine you installed linux on? 8 - do you know your way around vim keybinds? 9 - what is your favourite non-os software? 10- biggest linux pet peeve? 11- biggest annoyance with the community? 12- do you like your current distro? 13- Xenia or Tux? 14- what software are you never using again? 15- stock distro or hours of yak shaving? 16- have you compiled the kernel?

1. Whatever was distributed as part of the very short lived (only 1 pilot + 3 real issues) Forráskód magazine’s 1.44 floppy disk supplement in Issue #2 from 1995 february. It used loadlin, so you booted it from DOS. I always thought I’ll never be able to see it again, as my copy of the floppy got lost and was probably demagnetized anyway, but looks like someone managed to save it and uploaded it to Archive.org, bless their soul! it’s inside file forraskod_1995-02.rar under linux.zip. Issue #3 extended this “distro” with a GCC compiler, but looks like issue #3’s floppy supplement is not in this archive :’(, I hope someone might still recover it though, meanwhile let me boot up the original under DosBox for fun
2. I did lose my original blog (along with some customer data but who cares about that) in a hard drive failure sometime in 2008, which used ext2, and no journaling. I still have the full dump from the HDD in the hope that one time, when I’ll have enough time on my hands, extract my original blog’s posts from it. I did manage to get plenty of it out already using some hand crafted tools that tried to find mysql data in the dump, but never finished this project
3. For real yeah, but it was in a chroot. For fun, also yeah. Who doesn’t?
4. I triple boot with Windows, OSX and Linux, and use whichever is best for what I want to do.
5. zsh FTW
6. No need, git reset –hard and git push –force can fix everything anyway
7. I think it might have been still a 386, or maybe a 486SX. Definitely didn’t have floating point support
8. Just the basics, but I do enable vim mode in other editors too
9. Heroic Launcher
10. CTRL+SHIFT+C is the default to copy&paste in GUI terminals instead of just using one modifier letter like in OSX
11. Kernel development is a minefield now
12. It’s okay
13. Tux
14. Anything from Adobe. They don’t work on linux anyway.
15. Ain’t nobodoy got time for customization
16. During my Gentoo times, yeah

So it was called hunix-linux mini system v0.0 running kernel 1.1.85

And it still runs nicely!

Obviously , as 1995 was the year of the desktop linux
