Hi,

i really like the small distributions of linux, i think they can offer a lot of useful features for that admin or power user in a fast way and consuming a lot of little resources.

this time i going to write a review of this distribution called Tiny Core. the iso only weight 10 MB and is focused to bring the most basic graphic environment. and when i say basic, i mean really basic, the desktop don’t have anything more that the essential tools to mount drives, make USB installation, and make basic administration tasks. anyway as any linux have a terminal where you can make most of the things.

i wasn’t able to test it as i tested it on a virtual machine but the hardware support is poor as the intention is to offer the most basic installation possible. anyway it brings a GUI package manager where you have available the most common apps and libraries.

there is anything else to say really, is a distribution for experienced users that could be a base for any interesting project as a base, with enough time to find , install, customize and compile any driver or software needed. also could be good as a rescue distribution for an old USB or disk, as it boots really fast (less than 2 seconds). anyway in this matter i will choose better a more hardware compatible distribution.
