#linux35

Before Ubuntu or Fedora, there was SLS (Softlanding Linux System), released in 1992: the first Linux distribution to bundle the kernel with enough software to be usable out of the box. Both Debian and Slackware trace their roots back to it. https://archiveos.org/sls/#google_vignette #Linux35

Did you know the original name for Linux was "Freax" (free + freak + Unix). When Linus uploaded the code to his university's FTP, admin Ari Lemmke didn't like that name and renamed the directory "Linux" without asking. The rest is history. https://www.howtogeek.com/how-linux-got-its-name/#Linux35
