I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Hannah Montana Linux, is in fact, Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Miley plus Hannah. Hannah Montana Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning Miley Cyrus system made useful by the Miley corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by Disney.

Many computer users run a modified version of the Miley system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of Miley which is widely used today is often called Hannah Montana Linuxand many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Miley Cyrus system, developed by the Miley Cyrus Project.

There really is a Hannah Montana Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Hannah Montana is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Hannah Montana Linux is normally used in combination with the Miley Cyrus operating system: the whole system is basically Miley Cyrus with Hanna Montana added, or Miley/Hannah. All the so-called Hanna MontanaLinux distributions are really distributions of Miley/Hannah!

As usual, Disney's knocking it out of the park with the FOSS they offer.

They fought hard to make Steamboat Willie FOSS

Well that explains it.
