BUILD YOUR OWN Ubuntu/Debian DISTRIBUTION!

Posted 12-08-2017 at 11:58 AM by exton (Exton's Blog)

Refracta tools (snapshot) are built in in ExTIX, MeX, ExLight, Debian PIXEL, LFA (Linux For All) and DebEX. You can start from any of those distributions and change something or everything! Then you'll have your very own Debian/Ubuntu distro - http://www.exton.se/?page_id=2
