Definition: eLSD: The Linux Society Distro, eLSD, was announced September 21, 2002. Derived from Devil-Linux, eLSD is a highly secure CD boot only OS. It's currently available in three versions: 0.1 - Devil-Linux offered as a build and burn kit. 0.2 - This version begins to make changes towards the eLSD goals by creating a bigger divide between the initrd/linuxrc boot and the init/boot in the OS. It also boots w/o the floppy that includes the /etc filesystem. 0.3 - This version actually converts Devil-Linux into an optional hard drive boot OS. The boot process occurs entirely in the initrd phase and then accesses the harddrive. This kit offers a robust kernel, two custom initrds -- one that boots to busybox/tinylogin -- and grub and parted support. A CD-based distribution.
