Any success/failure stories from anyone trying out LinReaper by the way?
Aha, i'm caught.

Given the army of JS plugins, and the apps like Jack, Linuxsampler, Ingen, as well as the army of ladspa, and growing number of LV2 plugins, i would think a reaper/wine/linuxos usb project, that plugged into either win or linux would be interesting. Sadly i've discovered that PPC architecture doesn't play well at all with win/intel/amd hardware outside of a dedicated build, so that one's out, without running an emulation layer like qemu.

but the idea of a RealinOS, with the addition of powerful linux tools and apps remains appealing.


Alex.

p.s. I haven't tried LinReaper yet for the simple reason that i installed most of my latest linux build from source, with some sizable tweaks, and specific dir installs outside of the norm, and it's running sweetly.

you know what i mean.

Tinfoil territory.......
