King-Pigeon is a 64-bit based Template OS which is set to be, ideally, the foundation of Modular Linux. It also allows individuals to build their own bash scripts that uses the Template OS (or it's specialist subsets) to fundamentally configure the system into what they want. There's quite a few advantages to this system: bash scripts are easy to maintain, you are not overly reliant on large scale hosting (as you only need the bash scripts and associated copy-over files), it offers a one-click run, packages will already be largely geared for that specific architecture type, there's no 4GB size limit restriction, you can automate it, you can store it (and call it down) from github, you can make it so they chain into each other, users can choose between as generic or as specialised as they need, and any initial security configurations from the template source are inherited down the line to specialist classes. That means any upgrades to a template OS will be inherited into it's derivatives when they next reinstall.
The idea being that, you choose the final OS that you want, and the system runs the scripts stage-by-stage to achieve that specific desired OS. More specifically, it converts one OS (for example King-Pigeon, a template OS) into another (for example, Devonshire-Class medical OS).

Modular Linux is an OS that fundamentally changes itself based on a series of bash scripts. At the moment it's 'just a reskin', but there are plans underfoot for more complicated technology, which is where the modular part steps in. Normally I'm a public domain kind of guy, however it was the only way I could feel comfortable releasing this without the concern it might be used to harm others, so no licence, there'd be no OS. It's also worth noting that the OSes and the system used will fall under a custom crafted Pacifism Public Licence, and you'll definitely want to read the fine print. Once you have your distro together, please post to the derivatives forum.Īs the task I'm taking on is a pretty big one (it isn't one main OS but a string of them), I want people to be immediately aware that these OSes will be buggy and definitely in beta, however I will attempt to signal completed OSes.
