Everest Linux

A highly flexible, general purpose operating system, built off of the monolithic Linux kernel and Glacier package manager.

Why Everest?

Simple: Everest strives to be simple by design, coming with no pre-installed bloatware, or spyware

Stable: Everest is designed to be as stable as possible. Adopting a unique approach to package management, update any package whenever you want, or not at all. Plus, major package dependencies are not resolved automatically, reducing the possibility of needing to downgrade a library.

Fast: Glacier downloads program source code from the Everest Package Index, then compiles it locally on your system, resulting in an extremely optimized experience. Simply define the makeflags for your system and you're ready to go.

Lightweight: Everest uses busybox and sysvinit to provide an extremely lightweight system.

Flexible: Everest supports higly customized installations, to the point where some of them can't even be considered Everest anymore.
