A rather unknown [Linux] distribution, found at [http://www.ibiblio.org/peanut/]. Derived from [Slackware]. It is worth knowing because: * it tries to be small. No longer so small as it used to be, but still considerably smaller than giants like [SUSE] or [Redhat]; * it tends to be quite fast; * it can be installed on a [FAT32] partition; it gets too slow then, but [Windows] users may want to try it this way; * even in a native Linux partition, it provides the means to be launched from a DOS partition and a batch file. So you don't need LILO or Grub or anything that should strike fear into a newbie's heart because it might mess with the MBR. It is a [Slackware], though. It is not too friendly to newbies sometimes. Peanut is created and maintained by one single man, in Canada, that goes by the name of "linuxkid". [Luciano ES] testifies that ActiveTcl installs in it without the slightest glitch. ---- [[ [Category ???] ]]
