From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If it's just Internet access, would you want to use something more locked down like Fedora kiosk?
Fedora Kiosk does not appear to be in active development, and there is nowhere available to download it.
Sorry, good catch.
It had been a while since I had played briefly with kiosk mode in a VM: I misremembered the project (the one I played with was still available)
I had found it interesting, and had set it up... Probably been around a year or so.
The project I used was Gnome kiosk, not Fedora kiosk.
