A project i started that needs a name...

OldSkool

Hello I started a project that will be somewhat like "Ultimate Boot CD". But I want mine to work with PCs old and new. It will have:

-grub4dos (a bootloader that is used on cd)

-Multiple DOS 6.22 Boot floppy images

-Many utilities

-Some security apps

-more

But the thing is I have no name for it, so what will be a good name for the project?

Also I want to create a splash screen for it without losing image quality.

I would call it:

UltiBoot [Version]

Here's an image of a potential splash screen:

Now are you going to have a mini os on it to like mini xp or mini win 2000? that's a nice splash screen for it. should you use like ms dos 7 since that will do bigger drives and fat 32. Ms dos 6.22 will only work on hard drives up to 2gb and fat 16.

Really what you should establish here is if you are:

A. Trying to produce something useful that others can benefit from.

OR

B. Just in this for the experience, cool factor and/or educational benefit.

Once you figure that out, you should move forward with a general goal/objective/purpose. If you are doing this for reason A. then you most certainly don't want to re-invent the wheel. I challenge you to take a step back and think about your "project".

The post above adds no value to this thread. What if the same reasoning was applied to Ubuntu and Debian. Well, Debian's okay and it does all that I need, so why create Ubuntu? Or why even create Linux when there's Minix? Same thing.
