Why? Last week, when the latest version of Bastille, a jail (container) management system for FreeBSD was released, it also included experimental Linux support. Its author needed Ubuntu, so that was implemented. I prefer openSUSE, so with some ugly hacks I could get openSUSE up and running in Bastille. I was asked to document it in a blog. This topic does not fit the sudo or syslog-ng blogs, where I regularly contribute.

Why yet another blog? You might ask, “why yet another blog?”. A completely valid question. You can read my blogs and articles already at three different places: sudo blog syslog-ng blog opensource.com articles Still, not all topics fit these three places. The sudo and syslog-ng blogs include only blogs about the given software. And while opensource.com covers many topics, it still does not cover everything. They do fantastic editing work, but it takes time.
