Photon is built from scratch – it’s not a fork of any existing Linux distribution. In building Photon, the team has benefited greatly from the Linux From Scratch (LFS) approach. We acknowledge the simplicity, elegance and clarity of Linux From Scratch.

3) LFS-RPM - bahot
3) LFS-RPM - Baho Utot https://github.com/baho-utot/LFS-RPM

Photon automates the LFS model of constructing a Linux system through the RPM build process.

When we began Photon, we found Baho Utot's LFS-RPM project and we considered using it as the

basis of bootstrapping our build system. We requested Baho to clarify the license terms of

LFS-RPM and Baho very graciously released all of LFS-RPM into the public domain. Thank you!

As a result, Photon was bootstrapped with Baho's LFS-RPM project.

4) RPM Spec files

Photon maintains its own spec files. The initial release of Photon comprises over 200 Linux packages. Of these, around 30 spec files come from the Fedora project. We gratefully acknowledge this. As we evolve our spec files moving forward, we will document their lineage.
