[Qt-interest] Best Linux for QML app?

[Jason H]

Well I tried Arch linux, and it is out.
Too many problems with getting it installed. Grub wouldn't accept how I wanted 
the disks partitioned. When I auto partitioned it, grub worked, but then when it 
booted, it couldn't find the root fs. Might be because I'm using USB flash to 
install with. But grub was doing it by uuid, so it should have worked. But it 
drops me off at prompt before my USB keyboard is discovered. So that's a fail.

I gave MeeGo for IVI a try, boots X nearly instantly, but seems slow once 
booted.

Thanks.

Yes, I want to make a single purpose home control center SCADA type thing. I've 
been dreaming of this ever since I got an iOpener 10 years ago! (I evens till 
have it) But now we can do so much more!

If you want something up-to-date and lightweight, Arch is always good,
but you'll have to spend some time setting it up and tweaking it for
fast-boot, etc..  Their wiki has plenty of good articles on such
things.  Are there any other requirements?  Is this intended to be a
single-purpose/kiosk type of machine?
