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.

Try again and read the post you were answering too in the first place.

By luck you’ll find the only, which wasn’t mentioned by the originating post (original_charles) or my plus one post, but was introduced by the illusionist.

Okay let me try again:

Why is mint only for starters?

It's not just for starters.

Nobody wrote just or only for starters

Kay, kay. We’re tooting the same horn. Let’s get back to enjoy our unity on that one.
