Is it Unix? Does it ship with a standard shell? Would I be able to build and install standard packages on it?

- diggan 7y agoI only find "unix-like" mentioned in the documentation, so probably not. Sounds like you're looking for Tiny Core Linux or similar projects.
- rvz 7y agoNo. It is its own OS from scratch. Not POSIX either.
- kwhitefoot 7y agoNo it isn't and the shell is quite limited it seems although it does look like it could be extended. If this could run Bash, rclone, and whatever Ethernet hardware I have in my old laptops I think it would be really useful. I wonder how much effort would be needed to port the GNU Core Utilities? Probably well outside my comfort zone. Still it should be worth a look!
- anta40 7y agoNo. It's not "yet another UNIX/POSIX-based OS". It's completey written from scratch. I haven't followed Menuet for a few years. Not sure if now they have GCC or not. If not, probably you won't see your favourite apps run on it.
