dont say it depends on what you use/want it for. i want to know what YOUR favorite is, and why. |
i vote gnoppix. gnome-based knoppix.
|
Mepis
Ease of hard disk installation
Responsiveness of online forum (and creator) |
I like SLACKWARE-LIVE.
A legend created on another. |
i had forgotten mepis, and i didnt know slack had a live one.

Slackware actually has two. The second Slackware installation disk can be booted off of as a live rescue disk.
The other is a seperate project called SLAX, formerly known as Slackware-live. It's a relatively small live-cd distro which, in terms of the GUI at least, is focused entirely on KDE and it's applications. No redundancies like with Knoppix. Only Konqueror, no Mozilla. Only KOffice, no OpenOffice or Gnome office apps. And so on. Some other popular projects you left off include Morphix and Damn Small Linux. There's also the up-and-coming PCLinuxOS. |
i knew i couldnt remember all of 'em.
|
I voted for Knoppix. You also forgot Morphix - I know it is based on Knoppix, but there are some significant differences. Both are cool.
|
another vote for slackware live. it boots at least twice as fast as knoppix, and imho is easier to work with. :cool:
|
|
Yea slack-live gets my vote, then knoppix.
|
Phlak rules!
Im running it on a p166, 32meg ram, no hdd and a 12x cdrom with an isa nic plugged into my cable modem! i'd like to see you run kde on that! |
MEPIS .. End of story :).
|
Knoppix, then Morphix but I 've yet to try the Slack one
|
SLAX, SuSE live, Knoppix
