Kiwi Linux

[Posted October 3, 2007 by ris]

Kiwi Linux is a modified Ubuntu live CD for the i386 architecture. It includes Romanian and Hungarian localization, multimedia codecs, encrypted DVD support, Flash and Java plugins for Firefox, PPPoE GUI for accessing local internet services (Clicknet and RDS) and write support for NTFS partitions. Kiwi uses the same software repositories as Ubuntu with one additional source added for the handful of artwork related or slightly modified packages. Kiwi has released the Kiwi 7.10 beta live CD.
