First look at CDlinux 0.9.6
,----[ Quote ]
| CDlinux is a well-crafted mini-distro which
| manages to pack a lot of functionality into
| a small image. It has the ability to
| function as an on-the-road desktop for
| people who want to carry their operating
| system in their pocket and it also has
| tools, such as the partition imaging
| software, which make it a good rescue CD.
| It's fairly light on resources, making
| CDlinux feel like a smaller version of
| KNOPPIX and additional functionality can be
| added to the distro using Slackware
| packages, making CDlinux suitable for a
| wider range of tasks. The only thing I felt
| missing was an option to install the
| distribution to the local hard disk. While
| this could be done manually, I'm looking
| forward to seeing it as a feature of the
| system's graphical installer. I think
| CDlinux fits in nicely with the family of
| other small distributions, such as SliTaz
| GNU/Linux and Damn Small Linux in the mini-
| distro niche.

Distro-hopping notes
,----[ Quote ]
| I had a lot of time available to myself
| over the past week, as you might have
| guessed by my relative proliferation of
| posts. Some of that time was spent distro-
| hopping, although I had plenty more things
| to write about than just the flavor of the
| day.

| # Last but definitely not least, Slackware.
| Ah, Slackware. Slackware is the distro I
| really want to like, but every time I use
| it I am frustrated and befuddled and left
| feeling like a newb again. My run-in with
| Slax the other day was both the cause and
| the effect of trying out Slackware 13: I
| started with the Slax ISO, decided I wanted
| to build it from scratch with Slackware,
| became frustrated and then went back to
| Slax again. I know I need to try harder on
| this one; I shall have to look for some
| sort of howto that illustrates how to start
| at the command line and build up to a
| graphical environment, because thatâs what
| I ultimately would like to do with Slack.

| Full-featured desktop Linux distributions
| like PCLinuxOS and Linux Mint are quite
| useful, but there are times when a smaller
| and lighter distro can also be desirable.
| CDlinux is petite mini-distro that can be
| installed on a USB device or on a Windows
| C: partition.

| Summary: A useful distro that provides a
| viable option for those in need of a
| portable version of Linux. The standard
| edition also works well as a rescue distro.
