Task-Oriented Distros

This is a short section consisting of one brief chapter. This is because covering the task-oriented Linux distros in the same way and at the same level of detail as the general purpose distros would require another book—not because there are as many task-oriented distros as general purpose ones, but because with task-oriented Linux distros there are so many different tasks to cover. So how could I select one task and one distro and not cover others? And how could I possibly know which areas would interest you?

The best solution is to present related tasks grouped by category and then provide a list and description of the relevant Linux distributions.
