Hardened Linux: EOL (End of Life)

Georgy Berdyshev — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 19:18:37 -0000

Hacking on the HL project was a lot of fun (and of course a LOT of work) and we learned a lot while playing with the code and thinking about improvements. The code is still available on the repository.

Thank you for trying HL!

Radu Buda made a cool new website. And of course, we are in a winter break.

1.7.0-snapshot released!

Georgy Berdyshev — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 19:36:54 -0000

Today I uploaded 1.7.0-snapshot. The most important change is the new package system called 'cpfos'.

Here is some non hardened linux news.

Today our new german linux book was released. It is the 2nd release of the book called
"Linux. Das distributionsunabhaengige Handbuch."! (look here: http://linux-openbook.de/site/index.php?id=58\)

But that is not all! You can download it for free on http://www.galileocomputing.de/openbook/linux/

We also created a website for our books and articles only that can be found here:
http://linux-openbook.de

We also added this site to our site network list on the top of the page.

Feedback is always welcome and we hope you'll like it!

pkgtools are as good as done

Georgy Berdyshev — Fri, 24 Aug 2007 10:21:11 -0000

Today I finished the base coding part of the Hardened Linux package/ports system 'pkgtools'.

Since this morning ports are available (including auto-download and md5sum comparing of needed archives).

And since a few minutes the package updating tool is also available what uses the encrypted svn connection to check for updates and to download packages.

New ports functionality:

New online update functionality:

Website of the pkgtools:

The first version that will include this new package system is the one released next (either 1.7.0 or 1.8.0 what depends on the integration of a new installer).

20 packages already ported

Georgy Berdyshev — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 17:52:20 -0000

I already ported 20 of our packages to the new package system. It will take at least additional 20-50 to build an usefull running 1.7.0 base system but this does not hurt too much.

We hope to bring you 1.[78]-snapshot soon.
