I'm not sure that there are any beyond Lycoris. Caldera knock-offs never
gained any steam. The SysV init-based distros all have enough differences
that you'd be tripped up if you didn't scan the scripts first. In terms of
directory layouts, I'd venture a guess that any LSB/FHS-compliant distro
would be close enough, with the possible exception of SuSE.
