Title: DSL - Damn Small Linux Post by: don on July 12, 2006, 10:26:10 AM Quote DSL is a very versatile 50MB mini desktop oriented Linux distribution. Damn Small is small enough and smart enough to do the following things: - Boot from a business card CD as a live linux distribution (LiveCD) - Boot from a USB pen drive - Boot from within a host operating system (that's right, it can run *inside* Windows) - Run very nicely from an IDE Compact Flash drive via a method we call "frugal install" - Transform into a Debian OS with a traditional hard drive install - Run light enough to power a 486DX with 16MB of Ram - Run fully in RAM with as little as 128MB (you will be amazed at how fast your computer can be!) - Modularly grow -- DSL is highly extendable without the need to customize Get more info here: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/index.html Read a tutorial here: http://linux.sys-con.com/read/244333.htm Don Title: Re: DSL - Damn Small Linux Post by: Oyle on July 12, 2006, 07:00:58 PM Kewl! Downloading it right now. Looks like fun!
Like that it runs small, can power a 486. Can it install over Windows 98?
