Looking for a good Linux ISO image to put on a 250 MB mini-CD
Hey All,
What are the good ones out there? I'm looking for one that uses the space effectively. I could just go with a zip disk I suppose, but I feel like less PCs have a zip disk than have a CD drive. Thanks for any advice! Tim |

A warning: the "Max" entries are not consistent, in some cases they are after compression -- the actual burn size -- e.g. Knoppix & MEPIS; & in other cases they are before compression -- the total software provided -- e.g. Ubuntu. You will need to investigate carefully -- a 625MB before compression might fit very nicely on a 250 mini-CD. |
Slax and Puppy are fun.

Thank you so much everyone for replying to my post. My internet connection at home has been down and I haven't had time at work to get to the boards.
I'm going to have to check out everything everyone recomnded sometime soon, but just to make sure that I have the right idea in mind... Linux exists in CD form where you don't have to install anything right? I think that they're called live CDs? That's what I'm looking for, did I ask the right question in the post? What I'm trying to accomplish is the ability to run a linux work environment on the windows machines at work without having to install it onto those machines, because that would be frowned upon by my employer (go figure) :) Thanks again everyone, hope my internet is going to be up soon at home!
