t2sde VS Aalbus

> T2 SDE is not just a regular Linux distribution - it is a flexible Open Source System Development Environment or Distribution Build Kit. Others might even name it Meta Distribution. T2 allows the creation of custom distributions with state of the art technology, up-to-date packages and integrated support for cross compilation. Currently the Linux kernel is usually used, but we also started to port T2 to support compiling home-brew like open source package add-ons on macOS, other BSDs, classic Unix systems (Irix, ...) or support bootstrapping alternative micro kernel systems (like a L4 variant or Fuchsia). Similarly building Haiku, Android, Minix, Hurd, Open (or Pure) Darwin, Haiku and OpenBSD could be supported, too.

T2 Linux 24.5 "Future Nostalgia" was released.

A major milestone update shipping full support for 25 CPU architectures, and severalC libraries. Support for cross compiling was further improved for Rust, ADA, ObjC,Fortran, and Go!

This is also the first major release with Intel IA-64 Itanium support restored and fully supported. Additionally many X.org 1 DDX drivers were fixed and tested to work again as well as full support for latest KDE 6 and GNOME 46.

T2 is known for its sophisticated cross compile support as well as supporting nearly all existing CPU architectures: Alpha, Arc, ARM(64), Avr32, HPPA(64), IA64, M68k, MIPS(64), Nios2, PowerPC(64)(le), RISCV(64), s390x, SPARC(64), SuperH x86(64) T2 is an increasingly popular choice for Embedded systems, virtualization and still supporting the Sony PS3, Sgi, Sun and HP workstations as well as latest ARM64, RISCV64. https://t2sde.org

Other option may be to custom build a system for it using something like T2SDE

T2 Linux is a distro. That Apple and then some other people named their project like that 10 years later is not our fault ;-) https://t2sde.org Also nobody will be interested in Apple's unimportant Intel Macs soon anymore anyway, ... ;-)

life is too fast? you want to slow down and digital detox? Vintage or Retro hardware? t2 Linux now got you covered with support for Firefox on CPUs as low as i586 on an otherwise i486 supporting distribution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGxg8BmV55k (they actually support 24 CPU architectures, basically everything between ARM and RISCV64 https://t2sde.org ;-)

T2SDE is a very powerful distro/meta-distro that offers a lot of choice. The architecture support is insane and you can build & crossbuild systems like PS3, Dreamcast & tiny embedded sysyems alongside all the usual stuff.

T2SDE has a huge scope and is linux only at the moment but seems like the most likely place to see a new linux/bsd hybrid appear.

I've not used it beyond some light testing but I reckon Crux is a solid contender for most BSD like Linux system beyond stuff like Aalbus and Mutiny which are more experimental OS's. It's using BSD-style init scripts, a ports system for package management and has been keeping it simple, stupid for 20yrs odd years.
