Have you thought of anything yet?

I mean, there are loads of things you can do. What type of stuff interests you when using Linux?

I suggest taking a task you do regularly and automating it. Or, maybe try writing a Linux distro's init scripts from scratch-- that would be a doozie!

Perhaps instead of one big project, you could make lots of small ones and link them together under some sort of menu system. Then you'd have an all-in-one utility package of some description.

I want to do projects in linux administration, basically interested in security/protection/authentication etc.
What do you think is the present hottest area? You know I'm asking only for campusing.

If you're interested in building an OS, you should also get into c and c++ programming. If you look around hard enough you can find lots of good tutorials. A lot of times, even O'Reilly books show up online on overseas .edu sites.

Good luck :)
