Damn Small Linux

DSL is a very versatile 50MB mini desktop oriented Linux distribution.

Damn Small is small enough and smart enough to do the following things:


 * Boot from a business card CD as a live linux distribution (LiveCD)
 * Boot from a USB pen drive
 * Boot from within a host operating system (that's right, it can run *inside* Windows)
 * Run very nicely from an IDE Compact Flash drive via a method we call "frugal install"
 * Transform into a Debian OS with a traditional hard drive install
 * Run light enough to power a 486DX with 16MB of Ram
 * Run fully in RAM with as little as 128MB (you will be amazed at how fast your computer can be!)
 * Modularly grow -- DSL is highly extendable without the need to customize
