Make mine a Lite, a MEPISLite
MEPISLite 3.3.1-2, a late beta version, is designed from the ground-up to be a fully functional Linux system that will run on a Windows 98 class machine. It is reported to run on as little as a Pentium II system with 128MB of RAM and a 2GB hard drive.
I believe it.
There are, of course, many other small Linux distributions. Zenwalk (formerly Minislack), Puppy Linux, and Damn Small Linux, to name a few. All have their fans.
Still, I think MEPISLite deserves anyone's attention.
For starters, it is a complete desktop Linux system. You're not going to sit down at MEPISLite and find yourself wishing for functionality that's not there.

The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility. |
