Linux distribution
A
Linux distribution
(often called a
distro
for short) is an

made from a software collection, which is based upon the
Linux kernel
and, often, a
package management system
. Linux users usually obtain their operating system by downloading one of the Linux distributions, which are available for a wide variety of systems ranging from
embedded devices
(for example,
OpenWrt
) and
personal computers
to powerful
supercomputers
(for example,
Rocks Cluster Distribution
).
