pcwd is a Linux Kernel driver for Berkshire Products' ISA and PCI PC Watchdog Card with /proc support. It automatically reboots your machine upon a crash.

Ether 1394 is a kernel module which offers an easy way to use IEEE 1394 buses like an ethernet LAN on Linux systems.

Brighton Chilli is an effort to promote the BSD's
in the Wifi field by providing a flash image and
bootable ISO with Chillispot for easy rollout of
managed Wifi hotspots. Initial releases will be
based on FreeBSD, with the aim of covering Open
and NetBSD later. The image contains software
under various licenses.

LostNIX is a Linux distribution based on the
Slackware core. LostNIX is equipped with lostSEC
and LostRES, an ncurses based security and package
update utility system that updates from a public
base constantly. This provides your system with a
revolving security and pre-audited/selected update
system. It also provides a built-in code sharing
auto-update software called LostOPEN. This enables
you to make updates to your system in a testing
jail, and enables you to publish your modified
code to a community directory for others to use on
the fly with LostNIX.

XPKGTOOL is a GUI front-end for pkgtools that
allows you to manage, install, remove, and upgrade
packages with ease, through a nice and user
friendly X-based interface. It comes with a
built-in update manager, called SlackGrade, that
will help you to keep your Slackware system up to
date, checking, downloading, and upgrading the
system with the latest packages available from the
main Slackware distribution sources on the Web.

Ketchup is a tool for updating or switching
between versions of the Linux kernel source. It
can find the latest versions of numerous kernel
trees, calculate which patches are needed to move
to that version, download any patches or tarballs
that aren't cached, check GPG signatures where
available, and apply and unapply patches to get
the desired result.

Portable Linux is a tool that lets you create
bootable USB and removable drives using popular
Live CDs based on Casper (like the Ubuntu family
of distributions). It sports some unique features.
The live setups it creates let you use the
remaining disk space on your USB drive to store
and transport files between computers, as usual.
If your distribution supports persistence, the
files and settings you edit on your live Linux
distribution are persisted across reboots.
Finally, you can access the area used to store
your files from within your Linux distribution.

Osnofianlinux is a project that creates small,
special-purpose Linux distributions, which are
normally written to a floppy disk or a small
bootable ISO image.

Preview is a simple image viewer for GNUstep. It
is designed to be easy to use and support GNUstep
features such as image design,
pasteboard/services, printing, and layout.

ReVirt is part of the CoVirt project, which investigated on the use of virtual machines to provide security in an operating-system-independent manner to enable the security system to function independently from the guest operating system. ReVirt logs enough information to replay the entire intrusive sequence instruction-by-instruction so that a detailed observation on the attack can be documented. It includes a system called BackTracker that helps system administrators understand (and thereby recover from) an intrusion, by automatically identifying potential sequences of steps that occurred in an intrusion. Starting with a single detection point (e.g., a suspicious file), BackTracker identifies files and processes that could have affected that detection point and displays chains of events in a dependency graph.

Alindis - A GNU/Linux Distribution is a comprehensive guide which leads the reader from zero to his/her own GNU/Linux distribution. In the course of the lecture, the reader will be able to reproduce the creation of the Alindis GNU/Linux distribution, the example implementation of the concepts shown there. The guide and the distribution together form the Alindis project.
