13 Independent Linux Distros That are Built From Scratch
There are hundreds of Linux distributions available.
But most of them fall into these three categories: Debian, Red Hat (Fedora) and Arch Linux.
Using a distribution based on Debian/Ubuntu, Red Hat/SUSE or Arch Linux has its advantages. They are popular and hence their package manager offers a huge range of software.
However, some users prefer to use Linux distributions built from scratch and be independent of DEB/RPM packaging system.
