Welcome to LinuxForge.net

This is a simple website for documenting some of the projects I have worked on in the past. I wanted to dedicate the site to documenting some of the projects so that it may possibly be of help to someone else wanting to do something similar. Many but not all of the documents on this site will be Linux related. I almost always use Slackware or SLAMD64 on the Linux-side so many of these documents will be based on this distribution. However, the core configuration should apply or can be adapted to other distributions. I also hope to add some information for FreeBSD and Plan 9 in the future.
