<p>The first installable release, <strong>0.1</strong>, ships as a bootable ISO. No source builds for the user, no manual tooling — you boot it, the installer starts itself, you choose, and it builds. Here's the honest list of what has to be true before that ISO exists.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>The pipeline must actually build</h3>
|
|
<ul class="features">
|
|
<li><strong>Toolchain bootstrap on real hardware.</strong> binutils → gcc → libc → toolchain, from literal nothing. This is the hard step; source distros live or die here.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>A working base set.</strong> <code>base</code>, <code>toolchain</code>, <code>openssh</code>, and the tooling each swappable needs, all building against the chosen libc.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Every offered combo, proven.</strong> The stability promise is "stable on what we offer" — so the offering must be curated to what's tested.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h3>The ISO must boot and install</h3>
|
|
<ul class="features">
|
|
<li><strong>live/init works.</strong> The ISO boots, mounts virtual filesystems, and hands you the installer with no prompt in the way.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Network gate works.</strong> Connectivity check, <code>nmtui</code> handoff, re-check loop — the hard requirement handled gracefully.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>The installer writes a correct profile.</strong> Menus → make.conf → build, with the stability checks warning (never blocking) along the way.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>The installed system boots.</strong> First boot runs the init you chose, on the filesystem you chose, with the kernel you chose. Fixed at first boot.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Honesty about the present</h3>
|
|
<p>Right now the design is public, the repos are live, and this site documents it all — but nothing has booted on hardware yet. The gap between "the architecture is sound" and "0.1 exists" is exactly the work in this roadmap. We're not pretending it's done; we're saying plainly what remains.</p>
