Since it's a dumb question anyway, allow me to rant a bit. Youer actual question is, "Which is the lightest distribution. An OS is the lowest level of interface between the computer and the end user; consisting of the kernel, and maybe a few other things like X, compilers, possibly even glibc. I irritates the heck out of me when illiterate people suggest that Debian, Redhat, Slackware, etc. are competing OSes. They are all GNU/Linux OSes ... competing distributions.

My answer's written in invisible ink below:


Or you could try Zenwalk.

Puppy is pretty light, I'm using it on a 380mhz laptop with 192mb of RAM.


Mine really is in invisible ink.

Do you feel better after that, I hear it is very therapeutic.
