What to call my OS
 

Hi,

I was wondering what to call my operating system. It's just a minimal Linux distro but I was thinking of one of the following:

iOS
iO
iLinux

but wasn't sure which. Any chance you could lend a hand please? I've called my boot loader iBoot. The "i" bit comes from my surname: Ireland, so I think is logical.

Thanks very much!

Please, please don't do the small-I-capital-next-letter (iLinux) thing... it doesn't look bad, but using it in conjunction with a non-Apple-related product doesn't really make sense.

How about "I, Linux?" :-p

I agree with Ooble, the iFad is pretty annoying and it strongly suggest a relationship with Apple.

Why not post some screen shots of it, if you want to name it after its style, otherwise something that means something to you.

"mLOS" - minimal Linux OS

Thanks guys! I see how the i thing could look bad with non-Apple stuff so thanks for pointing that out.... I might have to change the boot loader......

I, Linux - I like. mLOS I also like..... what about miLOS?

Thanks again!

How about BAOS, which stands for Barely Adequate OS. Of course, it's a play on BeOS
