Damn Small Linux (or DSL for short) is a really small Linux distribution (no larger than a 50 MB ISO), intended to be able to run on the older systems with limited resources. It can run on small storage devices such as bootable business card, 64 MB USB flash drive, CompactFlash card (by using an IDE connector) or ZIP drive.On the road to a 4.0 version, the DSL v3.4 version is now ready to hit the machines. According to the developer taking care of this distro, the 3.4 version always loads into the RAM memory, therefore you could add at the hardware requirements section at least 128MB. This is a result of the fact that the dsl-3.4-initrd.iso version has the KNOPPIX image packed in the initial ramdisk, which also implies an easier PXE DSL Server setup.
Highlights:
- updated MurgaLua to v0.4.1
- added libXft.so.2
- added acpid
- added bcrypt. Dropped des
- improved emelfm for better CLI support
- fixed user umount Debian Woody bug.
- updated webdata to use bcrypt
- updated file backup/restore to use bcrypt via "protect" boot option.
- new image has been added: dsl-3.4-initrd.iso
For detailed information you can check out the distribution's release announcement.
Even though its size is quite suspicious, the DS Linux distro takes in a lot of useful tools and applications. It comes with an offer of web browser that takes in Mozilla Firefox, Dillo and Netrik, Office applications such as Ted - word processor, Siag -spreadsheet, Graphics editing tools like Xpaint. Due to its very low memory requirements, Damn Small Linux has also been ported to the Xbox as "X-DSL". It can be either run as a LiveCD or installed to the Xbox hard drive.
