Coyote Linux 4 will be based on OpenSuse

I recently made a switch from trying to use OpenEmbedded for the Coyote Linux base platform to openSUSE. Specifically, I am now using appliances built at: http://www.susestudio.com/ as my testing platform. My development system is running a full install of SUSE 11.2. I hadn’t really looked at SUSE much in the past – however I am very pleased with its installation, hardware support, desktop, and (IMO) the YaST2 system configuration application is FAR superior to the Red Hat based system management utilities.

Information

Coyote Linux is a security-centric mini-distribution of Linux designed specifically to function as a network edge firewall and VPN server. Developed by Vortech Consulting, LLC, Coyote is tailored for users who prioritize safety and efficiency in their home networks while preferring a simplistic and minimal solution.

Originally launched in 1999 during an era when consumer internet routers were non-existent, Coyote Linux emerged from the need for effective internet sharing across home and small business networks.
