EvilOS anyone ?

I like Pyrian, but maybe something else would be good as well.

DP-DOS (Dragonbox Pyra - Debian Operating System)

PIND (PIND Is Not Debian)

Let's confuse people !

my initial suggestion for any debian release on the pandora was: debora. as in the female name.


debyra would very well fit that scheme, but wouldnt make any sense namewise and thus would not be any fun.


i totally love the idea behind papyrOS.


but we could simply go for pyrOS, which would translate to "fire-OS".


pyrrhos is also the name of a greek warlord (somewhat related to alex the great). maybe we shouldnt go that direction.

PIND (PIND Is Not Debian)

Well to be accurate:

PIRJDWAAR (PIRJDWAAR Is Really Just Debian With An Additional Repository)

 

[Grench]

NOCIX  (No he who should not be named.)

POS (Ostensibly for Pyra OS.  However, if lost in translation could mean that the Pyra running Pyra OS could be seen as a flaming piece of excrement - so probably a bad idea.)

Pebian, Pybian, Pyrbian, Pyrabian would all work.

dbdbOS would be a mistake.

EvildragoOS might work.  Or just DragOS - maybe not though.

I used to run Potato, before I upgraded to Woody.

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianPotato

While the reference is nice (Potato being an old Debian version and "pyra" being a Polish word for "potato"), I think it's not a very good idea to use it as a name because people might incorrectly assume that we're using a horribly outdated version of Debian.

Oh, I didn't know there already was a Debian Potato.

Then let's just call it "Kartoffel".

+1 for Pyros

Because its a Retro Emu Homebrewhandheld, i would sugest "Raider"

(its the old name of twix)..

(if you have some shokolade whit "Raider" on it, look at the Best before Date)..

I like it 'Raider' sounds good. Pyrian as suggeted by Bazzar works too.

Funeral potato I'm still trying to get my head around. 

Edit: I must have been tired last night. I don't remember starting this thread. Did a mod open it and move my post here?

Maybe I should lay off the quinoa.

Uhmmm ......Carbon ?

:rolleyes:

I couldn't really care less. As long as the OS itself works.

It needs to be christened from the source, the open source! :huh:

OSDOS (open source debian operating system )

not sure where potatoes are fitting in to the whole story, but i think "portentous potato" sounds nice.

(in all seriousness, pyros and pyrian sound quite nice to me.)

I linked it in my first reply, I'll link it again for good measure: http://boards.openpandora.org/topic/15142-pandora-successor-name-final-poll/page-11#entry299279

You say potato, I say poTATO! You say Tomato...

The Pandora OS didn't have a name other than I guess Angstrom when Angstrom was still a thing.  After that we just called it by its version name; Zaxxon, SZ etc.  I agree we need a version name series, rather than a single name for the OS.  For the sake of it, I vote for Monsters Inc. monsters; Sulley, Mike, Roz, Boggs etc.

This.

An extra Thread for that?


Why not simply PyraOS?

 

[FaeMinx]

PyraOS, PyrOS, or Pyrian are all fine by me.

 

[Kev2442]

Whatever its name will be, will be fine to me.

Toaster ?
