I've been thinking that what I want to do is to make a dedeicated os for xbmc. Which do you think would be better to use for this purpose, Linux from Scratch or Slackware.

I figure it would have been good if I used the correct versions throughout. :-)~MIKE~(-: On Wed, May 1, 2013 at 4:52 PM, JD Austin wrote: > I'd love to do an Asterisk/Freepbx presentation again; when I have 'spare > time'. > I did one a long time ago but I'd want to have a lot longer since it is > way too much material to cram into 2 hours; ideally I think it would be > more fun if it were hands on and the participants actually set up their own > PBX in a virtual machine.
