   Hello community   
      
   I'm researching the necessary steps needed to launch a board. I'm a linux guy   
   and intend to rig the hardware on a recovered corporate workstation with a   
   core I5 and 16gb of RAM. I haven't settled   
   on a distro but it'll likely by Ubuntu (what I'm accustomed to) but it's not   
   set in stone. I may go with Debian who knows.   
      
   Anyway, naturally I have a ton to learn but this isn't unfounded. I was   
   co-sysop for a number of boards during the nineties and Iknow much has changed   
   over that last twenty years.   
      
   Can someone point me to a good resource that compares bbs systems compmatible   
   with linux or should I just ask away in here?   
      
   Meanwhile, I have an ex-sysop friend who i'm hoping will hop onboard withi me   
   an cosysop with me while helping create ansi art. There aren't many messages   
   in this channel so any advice yall can   
   dispense would be most appreciated.   
      
   You can also email me personally on my home bbs email: calcmanca   
   @digitaldistortionbbs.com   
      
   Ummm, just so yall know I'm ust at the start of planning so I have little else   
   figured out. I do know I'll want door games so I'll have to figure out how to   
   get dosbox runnning and working with a   
   linux board. Oh I know this is going to be such fun.   
      
   Thanks in advance,
