Main Goals
Here are the main goals of RSC Linux which can be seen as advantages or disadvantages.
- Stable and actual Linux kernel 2.6, glibc and gcc
- No compatibility packages, only forward development
- No LVM2 (it has multiple performance issues not solved, yet)
- IDN support (umlaut domains)
- No UTF-8 optimated stuff (lots of people currently dislike it)
- IPv6 support (IPv6 is something upcomping but mostly ignored)
- Limited number of packages, maximal 2 CDs (1 binary, 1 sources)
- Completely rebuildable using itself (no external build tools)
- Up-to-date and new packages
