GitHub - R1Xhard-35789/Lindows-AU-OS: A lightweight, privacy-focused Linux distribution built to revive aging hardware.

So I haven't tested it.

Assume it will need a re-build or more.

But a Ubuntu custom install working towards 98SE vibes to revive Grandma's PC.

Wasn't till after register the domain I did the history research and Twigged on the name.

Some sleep then testing.

Awesome article.

Leads me from pondering about creating a page about the build, when I get a valid enough version for me to push Lindows.AU.

Like the style with the code blocks and gives me ideas on the Screenshots as well as the "scripts" themselves.

Chicago 95 is win95 based but almost early win98 too plus the desktop background image idea is a piss take on XP.

Once have a valid build not spitting "no cdrom" and "not a typewriter" errors, onto Branding and tweaks.

Aiming for a Legacy Boot even if have to explain that process with log video for "standard" HP devices.

But would prefer a Secure Boot key if Microsoft would issue before a proper V.1 launch.
