What is Damn Small Linux ?

Quote:
Damn Small Linux is a business card size (50MB) bootable Live CD Linux distribution. Despite its minuscule size it strives to have a functional and easy to use desktop.

Why?
Because having a working Linux desktop distro on a 50 mb bootable business card CD is just too cool not to do.

Been playing with the .0.7.1 release..... screenshots are in my gallery here....

Humm, might be time for me to download DSL again. The latest version I've got 0.6.3.

I like the idea, but they could have made up a name to it that sounds more professional in my opinion.
I mean, I would have preferred a name like Mini Linux or something similar.
Anyways, the idea is cool. Still not something I would like to try out. Its just not for me.

There's a bootable Linux distro called Knoppix I've heard of as well altho it has several utilities included in it and it generally takes up a whole CD

Yeah, Knoppix is great. DSL on the other hand will fit on a credit card size CD that you can slip in your shirt pocket.
