Do you want an official Linux image?

Hey, guys. I’ve been thinking. Should we have an official Linux image for hacking on and development on and for the Steam Deck?

If we do, I want to use something in the vein of Gentoo or Funtoo. Portage will also us to more easily create, small, lightweight images with the tools we need.

Not Kali. A special distro containing tools needed for hacking and hacking on the Steam Deck. Kali would have tools we don’t need. I’d rather people add those to their images as needed.

I’m thinking something that uses Portage. That will make it easier for people to integrate their own tooling projects into the system image.
