Jurix was an early Linux distribution created by Florian La Roche, a former employee of the legal department at Saarland University. The distribution was maintained between 1993 and 1999 [1] and hosted on the now-defunct "jurix.jura.uni-sb.de" and "susix.jura.uni-sb.de" domains.
In 1996, jurix superseded Slackware as a base for SuSE Linux. [2]
The name "jurix" was borrowed from the department's first HTTP server, named by Alexander Sigel. [3] It is not known whether the name was taken from the nearby Dutch law and IT organisation JURIX, or simply a portmanteau of "Jura" (meaning "law" in German) and "Unix".
