minus-squarecorsicanguppy@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·4 days agoI worked on that. It was SuSe with any branding or tools ripped out, the carcass kicked over the fence for the rest of us to try to make an OS out of. It had no chance. What we got was a bleeding corpse after SuSE had a sellable product to compete against us all with. It killed turbo, it killed conectiva and it killed openlinux. Horrible thing.
