Yes, definitely could do with a list update. And I'm working on SuperMox rn.

SuperMox.me

Devuan based ProxMox fork. I bet it's more stable and faster once I get it going.

Could do with the list updating, as a lot of those mentioned are either no longer, or are with older versions than the present up to date ones....

Sweet! downloading here shortly, this is of great interest to me as i'm still working on building a server to host a Devuan repo. Can I pick your brains via PM to get some tips?

Yes, surely, would like to contribute!

Thank You @greenjeans . I finally made the ISO image public. BEEP OS BEEPING...A Devuan with out-of-the box live server! Run anything without hassle.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/beepos13/ . Wish it grows the Devuan community more with a new category of derivative: LIVE SERVER OSes.

If you mean where to host your iso, i've had really good luck with Sourceforge.

You are right, I should have said Excaliber - thats the trouble with using various different computer systems....

Which ones are using Trixie?
(Most seem to be using older versions)

I think excalibur, (Devuan with Linux 6.12.xxx kernel) I have used the live image and it says that, which corresponds to the Debian Trixie

I've used both in the past, & MIYO was the first choice for me for quite a while, but now, if I don't use the official media, I will use Crowz, which is another lightweight setup.

I was just pointing out that some newbies might be put off as they were outdated...

@greenjeans . . . That is very true and probably the logic behind them still being in their current position. Please share your perspective with Xenguy on IRC #devuan-www where this was being discussing earlier today wrt the presentation on devuan.org.

Perhaps just a note after their entries that they are no longer maintained?

MIYO and Star were a couple of the first to adopt Devuan, so they have some historical significance as they were there at the beginning of this amazing experience.

MIYO especially has meaning for a lot of folks, his thread in this section has over 380,000 views.

On a personal note, all of my projects from 2017-2025 have their start as re-spins of Miyolinux, I still have a copy of the original iso that really blew me away and set me to thinking even more outside the (Open) box. The philosophy of Make It Your Own still guides me to this day and I strive to make it easy for folks to do just that every time I sit down in front of the keyboard.
