Re-Imagining Linux Platforms to Meet the Needs of Cloud Service Providers
"When you’re used to the world of Windows or OS X, Linux
can seem a little unforgiving. Not only does command-line access
hand over the complete keys to the manor to any unwitting user with
access to the administrator’s account, there’s rarely a
safety net should things go wrong. Despite advances in most Linux
desktops (where the ubiquitous Trashcan safely buffers deleted
files), you get no such protection from most system-specific
configuration, installation and maintenance tools. And while
it’s rare for anything to go wrong without your direct input,
some accidents do happen, especially if you enjoy tinkering with
the latest distro release each month. But this being Linux,
there’s plenty you can do to dig yourself out of a hole,
which is why it’s always a good idea to have a repair-worthy
distribution close to hand when performing configuration and
installation tasks."
