Minimal Linux from Scratch

A barebones Linux distribution built entirely from source - kernel, shell, everything.

What It Does

  • Compiles Linux kernel from Torvalds' repo (minimal x86_64 config)
  • Builds BusyBox statically (your shell + core utils)
  • Creates initramfs with custom init script
  • Packages everything into a bootable ISO using ISOLINUX

Quick Start

./build.sh  

Boot it with QEMU:

qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom minimal-linux.iso -m 512M
