L/i/nux

L/i/nux Project Proposal

This is the proposal to create a new distribution of Linux for our /i/nsurgents. While I realize that this would be fairly similar to BackTrack in many ways I think there would be some key advantages to us creating our own distro:

• We can include tools that BackTrack was restricted from including (i.e. Nessus)
• Anon-specific tools such as Prank Calling, Mail Bombing, Spamming, DDoS, etc
• Themes!

Discussion

I've set up an IRC channel for the /i/Linux Project at irc.helldive.org #l/i/nux. Lurk moar.

Distribution

We should use LinuxTracker[1] to distribute the distro. It saves Anon the bandwidth

1. Ubuntu Decided upon by irc.
2. Linux Mint is better
3. Arch is best

Liberté Linux

Liberté Linux is a secure, reliable, lightweight, and easy to use Gentoo-based LiveUSB Linux distribution intended as a communication aid in hostile environments — created especially for Anonymous. Liberté installs as a regular directory on a USB/SD key, and boots on any desktop computer or laptop. Available internet connection is then used to set up a Tor circuit which handles all network communication. During first boot, a unique email ID is generated from fingerprints of user's certificate and Tor hidden service key. This persistent ID allows one to stealthily communicate with other Liberté users (the communication part is not yet finished). The distribution includes image and document processing applications, and can function as a secure web browsing platform.

For developers, Liberté can also serve as a robust framework for mastering Gentoo-based LiveUSBs/CDs. The build process is fully automated with incremental build support, and is more mature and reliable than most of Gentoo's own outdated LiveCD tools. Gentoo is an extremely flexible distribution for safely generating custom live media from source — for instance, Liberté does not contain Portage, GCC, Perl or Python.

Tools & Programs To Include

• HOW ABOUT WE ADD A COMPLETE GUIDE ON HOW TO FUCKING PROGRAM FOR LINUX and a fuckton of other usefull tech dox SO NEWFAGS CAN LEARN NOT TO BE NEWFAGS
• Start with easy docs and tools for n00bs, use as many ubuntu packages or PPA sources as possible, so the updates are Canonicals problem
• Components for Prank calls, wardialing, DDoS attacks, etc
• Encryption tools, mostly GPG w/ gui and TrueCrypt. Home directory encryption and swap partition encryption should be enabled by default.
• Anonymizing tools, TOR and Freenet are the only decent ones. Mixminion works for emails, but isn't n00b friendly.
• IRC Clients, X-Chat default (moar are easily acquired via software center)
• Components for scripting, python or whatever
• WINE to run Windows apps
• 'restricted extras' support for playback of mp3s / DVDs / etc.[2]
• start with gnome, add XFCE for slower systems and kde eventually

Current Programs

• Tor - Added repo to sources.list, seems to have an install error in the chroot, but files are there.
  1. dsniff INstalled

Unique Features

We're going to try and add some features which will be unique to the /i/Linux distro. This is going to be the hardest part of the entire project so we want to start out a bit realistic and not too ambitious here.

Features In Development

• Raid RSS
  • This feature will alert /i/Linux users to any new raids being planned on the Partyvan W/i/ki by using a simple RSS feed which we will be launching once everything is ready. This feature probably won't make it into the alpha releases (or even the early beta releases) of /i/Linux. This would be easy to implement with a gnome panel app.

Suggest Features

Add feature suggestions here.

• Bittorrent update system. If we follow the model laid out by the Hardy -> Intrepid bittorrent upgrade we could avoid bandwidth issues and server strain for any updates to the L/i/nux system.

• The use of Garfio for the compilation of a (possible) Live-CD: Garfio is a tool specifically made for the compilation of a Live CD for a distro called Tuquito Linux. The pros are that it's difficulty falls into the "easy-as-shit" category and that it can hold over 2 gigabytes of information to put in a 650MB CD (And, obviously, a tad more for a 700MB CD). The main con is that it might (MIGHT, I have not checked yet) be in Spanish; although I can help with that.

• Awesomeface start button, or something just as badass.

• Make it easy to boot off a usb thumbdrive

• There should not be a wallpaper, just a solid colour. Wallpapers takes much more CPU and RAM than a solid colour.
