What's the best lightweight Linux distro?
Rich:
@ roberts && curaga: I agree, so i decided to try my hand at documentation.
@ roberts: I have read in various posts that you want TCL to be flexible and users to have
choices as to how they install TCL. These instructions are not intended
to undermine that goal, merely to push newcomers to a known starting
point so that they can try TCL and become comfortable with it before trying
more advanced installs. Feel free to suggest changes, corrections or
reject it as you see fit. This was written in an attempt to take the newcomer
by the hand and walk them through the process.

Anyone can put comments on Distrowatch. It may be worth letting them know about this.

True, I think tc is not nice with old computers. With 16 Megs of RAM Debian would run fine and tc not at all.
That's why we don't think in black and white.
I would also like to see simpler documentation, but it seems to me that everything is in constant flux because of rapid development, so I never know where to start...
In my experience it was often faster and more rewarding to read the source rather than docs, release notes and changelogs. Commands like vi `which tce-setup`got very important for me to track development.

Heh, that's why I use tinycore. It feels so great to know each app I use has been automatically MOUNTED just like when I used to run Daemon Tools. ;)

@Rich, Thank you for your submission. It is currently under review and will likely be distributed in the packet to be given out at the upcoming Scale9x event. It will then be added to the website.
