From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can you install it on a Toshiba Libretto for Libretto-ception?

If you then 3D printed a libretto, would it be a cube?

I know you are joking but I think the 32 bit flux box version would boot to the desktop on some of the later Librettos.

You would be running out of RAM pretty quickly but I am sure it could be done.
