Best live distro: Puppy Linux

#1 Post by cthisbear »

Best live distro
"They are all live, but some are designed to work that way.
Without a doubt, Puppy Linux is the clear winner in this aspect.

Usable out of the box, super fast, super light, with a mighty punch and a
ton of programs, Puppy Linux is the king of the live session. "

Too bad he doesn't say how big the contestants are. Apparently Linux Mint Julia is so huge that it has to have a lot cut out just to fit on a CD. Is all of that stuff installed, or is there a lot of stuff on the DVD that will not be used in each individual installation?

Can Linux Mint Julia save in a Mint savefile like Puppy can save in a pupsavefile?

As I remember Mint need a Casper save file and them can not be used on frugal install on a NTFS HDD one need to create a partition for using it. Sure one use it on a USB flash that one have have partitioned for it though but that shows how way ahead Puppy is being able to work on a machine as it us dualbooting and saving on the NTFS from scratch. No need for partitioning.

Puppy is unique.
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

Not too many live distros let you take the cd out and still run to read/write CD, DVD, or Blue Ray with the freed drive...
