Arix

The last entry on Facebook says they'll be represented at a California Linux event on THURSDAY 20/02/14.  Unfortunately the event started on Friday the 21st....

So how does ARIX differ from AEROS?

[persia]

So on ARIX, what filesystems can you use?  Does it have a terminal, a CLI or both?  Is the whole of the Unix directory structure there (/usr, /home, /etc, /var and the rest plus the Amiga directory structure?  Is Xwindows available to run unix apps?   Is an emulator to run Android apps available?

So then Linux is hidden in an inaccessible ram disk?  What if you want to run a Linux app like you do in AREOS?

[persia]

You can't. Same as Amithlon.

So what's the point of having linux there and not be able to use it, might as well not be there at all.

[persia]

Let's keep the IQ of my underwear out of this.  If you have a Linux kernel around it's a shame to waste it.  There's a lot of Linux software that are nice to have around under AROS, such as word processors, video editing, picture editing, etc.

If you are running even a low end i3 there's more than enough power to run most Linux apps.

So then essentially the Linux kernel is replacing Kickstart?
