What is TeamSBC?

TeamSBC is a Linux distribution.

Relation to Fedora

TeamSBC is a Fedora Remix. This means that it takes its packages from Fedora but then layers its own on top. TeamSBC makes its own decisions on service configuration, what services are used for what, and what should be installed on a system.

Differences with Fedora

If you are a Fedora user or have used it previously then it’s useful to know what the differences are.

systemd

TeamSBC prefers to use systemd functionality when possible. This leads to a smaller and more integrated system.

systemd-homed

Fedora doesn’t use systemd-homed by default. TeamSBC has it set up and prefers to use it whenever possible to manage local users. See managing users for more information on how to use systemd-homed.

systemd-networkd

Fedora uses NetworkManager to manage networks, TeamSBC uses systemd-networkd. See managing networks how this works.

sudo

TeamSBC does not include sudo by default instead it uses run0.
