Yes! Linux allows you do whatever you want to do with it. OK! What you do you want to do with it?
Every Distro has a philosophy to determine its goal and its characteristic. That is why Linux come in many favor. However, sometime whatever is on the menu might not be the "ONE" you are looking for. So What do you have in mind?
List out how you would like your ideal or unique Distro should be.
To get this rolling
Few years back, I was having an idea to setup a CLI environment system, which bundle all the great and unique CLI softwares for everyday computing. And I have give it a NAME CLINU "command line Linux without X"
Ideal feature:
-Fast Boot (no reason not to)
-Highly polish Console (like color code, etc)
-Stay as RAW as Possible
-Well Documented every app that come with it
-No X.org dependence included in the disto
-Package come in both binary and script for local compile
-Pacman as the default package manager (I personally think it is the best)
-Including popular programming language lib. (for develop your own app as you need it )
Yes, you can setup a system like this pretty much with any distro out there. but this is no the point here.
NOTE: Your distro that doesn't have be for like everyone. Just think of what kind of philosophy you want a distro to follow. OR any interesting philosophy that will make a distro very unique from the others, and talk a little bit what kind of characteristic it has. (eg. a distro that has nothing but just basic X and every Video Game Emulator exist on Linux)
