We wish to uphold these relationships by providing Yellow Dog through a well-known, respected distribution channel," states Kai Staats, CEO, Terra Soft Solutions, Inc.
FKA will introduce Yellow Dog Linux to thousands of retail outlets in the United States. In addition, leading distributors and resellers in more than 100 countries worldwide will be able to work with FKA as a sole-source provider of Yellow Dog Linux, giving Yellow Dog a running start in the rapidly expanding Linux markets.

About the Yellow Dog Linux products to be offered
Champion Server is Terra Soft's professional server distribution, now shipping version 1.1 with support for Apple's latest hardware. While Champion Server was designed with the server environment in mind, it has proven to be a favorite among those who wish to dive for the first time into Linux, enhance the performance of their old Mac, or build a full-on server with the latest Apple hardware. Champion Server 1.1 was met with incredible enthusiasm as a debut at MacWorld NY.
Gone Home is the much anticipated version of Yellow Dog Linux designed specifically for the home user. It will be offered as a stand-alone product, bundled with games and/or home-office applications, and will introduce an entirely new graphical installer (yes, you can use your mouse and yes, it will be open source) currently in development by Terra Soft Solutions.
