Free Linux Distributions: Slackware

Post by asaf »

Slackware 9.1 should be available soon. I will announce it accordingly. By the way, we also have RedFlag Desktop version 4 but haven't had success installing it.

Suse 8.1 is also available for free but it installs directly on a machine over the internet.

Among mini distros, we have Knoppix, Demolinux, Lunar, Devil-Linux etc.
If anyone has any other distro in mind, do forward it to us.

asaf,
This is a very good model. The blank CD/drop, pickup requirement keeps away the freeloaders, at the same time making the distros accessible.

Keep up the good work.
