DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 246
[Posted April 1, 2008 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for March 31, 2008 is out. "
Good things come in a small
package and nowhere is this more evident than in the case of SliTaz
GNU/Linux 1.0 - a new mini Linux distribution that packs a full desktop
with many popular applications, utilities and web development tools into a
25 MB live CD. Complete with its own package management system, a text-mode
installer and a remastering utility, SliTaz has to be one of the most
impressive Linux distributions in recent memory. How can they pack so much
into so little space? Read on for a first-look review of the project's 1.0
release. In other news, a Norwegian hardware site interviews Arch Linux
project leader Aaron Griffin, Automatix announces the end of development of
the popular software installation tool, Klaus Knopper releases the new
KNOPPIX 5.3.1, and a nostalgic reader retraces the steps of installing
Debian GNU/Linux 1.3 on today's hardware."
