Meep 0.8 "Core"

(1/1)

Alligadi:
About 2 years ago I left Windows for Puppy Linux. But it had many weaknesses, from bad not controllable hardware support to rudimentary often file corrupting save file functionality. But it was still better than most bloated "Windows clone" distributions today I think for experienced users. Then I saw TinyCore and its great concepts and minimal initial appearance. and it was clear for me that I should try to create a individual system that fits my needs on top of it. I've chosen a Fluxbox-Rox combination with some custom scripts for different purposes and called it "Meep" because its capable enough to use it as primary operating system and damn fast and once. I didn't change it since December 2011, not because I'm lazy, but because it completely works the way I want it. You may read more about it there: http://hammerpatrick.wordpress.com/2012/09/08/meep-0-8/
There are two download files. One 8GB contains a whole USB stick FAT partition installable with "dd" with 5GB of free space ( sorry for the senseless 5GB of download, but it make the installation very easy :D )
And one 14MB file containing all scripts, application configs and themes, so you can install it on a newer TinyCore (Meep uses 3.7.1) for example or even on other Unix's.
