New distributions: Ark Linux, LinuxInstall.org, Yoper and Zool

It's a new year, and obviously the time to introduce new Linux distributions. This week we have added four distributions to our list. Linux for the desktop is a hot topic, and three of these four are ready to provide you with an easy to use desktop system.

Ark Linux and LinuxInstall.org are based on recent Red Hat releases, pared down for desktop users without all the server software. You'll find them in the Non-technical desktop section of the list.

Yoper brings us a Ydesktop release, but they have other uses for their base system, so we've added Yoper to the General Purpose section.

Zool Linux is aimed at the mini-distribution/rescue-disk market and has been added to the Floppy-based section although it is possible to burn a CD-ROM version as well.

You can find more information on these new releases in the 'New Distributions' section of this page.
