ABOUT EXTON LINUX
Some people wonder what Exton Linux is all about...
All Exton Linux distros are so-called Live Systems. That is, they can run "live" from a DVD or a USB stick and later be installed to hard drive (if desired). They can also run directly from the ISO file in VirtualBox/VMware. Most often, VirtualBox Guest Additions are pre-installed, which means, among other things, that my distros can run in full-screen mode in VirtualBox.
Some Exton distros are unique. That is, no other similar distro is available for download. Examples of such distros are CruxEX (CRUX Linux), Exton|Defender (Rocky Linux) and ExTiX Deepin (Deepin).
Most Exton distros can also be "remastered". That is, you can change everything and then create a completely new system, which can run from the new ISO file you created. The new system can also be installed to hard drive.
Besides, I always try to add something special, which is not included in the original distro. For example the latest Linux kernel.
