Linux Delivered Your Way

By Ken Hess

“It’s true and easier than ever before with tools such as VMware
Studio; a free download from VMware, SUSE Studio*, and rPath’s
rBuilder. VMware Studio is a virtual appliance (a small footprint
virtual machine responsible for hosting a single service or
application) that runs on VMware’s Server, ESX, ESXi, Workstation
or Player and supplies you with a web interface convenient for
building other appliances or distributions based on your choice of
other distributions. SUSE Studio is a completely web-based
application that offers the same functionality as VMware Studio but
using OpenSUSE only as a basis for appliances or customized
distributions. The rBuilder web-based application allows you to
build virtual appliances and distributions based on rPath Linux,
CentOS or Ubuntu (Hardy).”
