Sounds like Zipslack to me which uses UMSDOS to run
in a DOS file parition. Your first options is alway to do a native install.

No, looks more like BigSlack. It seems to have a bunch of X11 Window managers.

It used to be a free download, but now they seem to want $25 for it. Their site doesn't give any details on how up-to-date the distro is. Last time I checked, it was falling behind.
