FAQ
From SoL 25 Wiki
Every good documentation needs this, so here we go, a list of questions that have been asked recently, or we think that may be interesting.

[edit] Why isn't there more documentation? How does service XYZ work? How do I ...?
Everything that is specific and unique to SoL, is documented at SoL 25 Configuration. For everything else, take a look at the services' man pages or its documentation. Services provides a good starting point on where to go. There will be some Howtos every now and then about various stuff, you may have luck there finding what you need.
[edit] Why did you include Xorg, Gnome, etc. on SoL 25? After all, I thought it's a server distribution!
Well, X is a server too :) But seriously, quite a lot of applications and services do have dependencies on these packages, e.g. the virtualization stuff, and we didn't feel like crippling them. If you don't like it, don't run it, no damage done.
[edit] Is there a package management system? What happened to SoLrus?
SoLrus is deprecated, may God rest its soul. We are not planning to include any kind of package management system soon. The SoL way of package management is ./configure && make && make install :) For your convenience, you can find the buildscripts for all installed packages in /usr/src/atlbs.
[edit] Who unleashed SoL on us?
SoL is being developed by OSnet.
