Today, I will talk to you about the great use of the small Linux distribution, which may not be well understood by many people. in order to make you understand better, the editor has summarized the following content for you. I hope you can get something according to this article.

What is a small Linux (Small Linux) distribution? What little Linux do you have? What are they for?

As we all know, because of the high degree of modularization of Linux system, it is easy to separate some small Linux with small size and high efficiency (Windows system can not be handled in this way). These small Linux are often able to run in memory and are suitable for some special tasks, such as data recovery, system rescue and so on. Of course, they must be placed in LiveCD or LiveUSB to start the computer. There is no need to repeat it here.

On June 18 this year, Richard Hillesley wrote a review entitled Linux on a stick, which is enlightening and unforgettable. In fact, Puppy Linux is the representative of little Linux; smaller, Damn Small Linux; is smaller, Tiny Core Linux (champion of little Linux); smaller, there are some versions of small Linux tools, such as Parted Magic,SuperGrubDisk SystemRescueCD,. These small Linux distributions have their own clever uses.

On November 27th, Tiny Core 2.6 was released. This is the champion of the small Linux version (the volume is only 10MB). It can be implanted into a LiveCD or LiveUSB. The system starts up very fast and the programs all run in memory. In fact, based on this version of Tiny Core, you can gradually load some applications into a variety of small Linux versions.

As you know, people's attention is often overshadowed by some big brand Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu 9.10 and Fedora 12, without paying attention to the existence of these small Linux distributions. In fact, Surf Bao is a small Linux distribution that plays a big role. Use surfing treasure to surf the Internet, whatever you want to surf, how to surf, it happens completely in memory. Turn off the phone and leave without a trace. Of course, your surfing treasure can not be discarded casually, pay attention to save it properly.

Someone must compare Linux to Windows and let users choose one or the other. This is not fair. Linux was originally a skinny little girl, and it was inappropriate for her to compete with the strong, fat woman of Windows. Live technology solves this problem by putting Windows on the hard disk and Linux on the USB disk, so that the well water of the two does not interfere with the river water and no longer fights with each other for territory (that is, the hard disk). As I work with a flash drive (built-in Ubuntu Remix 9.10) every day, (the hard drive cable is also unplugged), for a long time, if I don't come into contact with XP, my anger with XP will disappear. XP likes to mess with viruses and Trojans, so just let it go.

Small linux distributions have always been a hot topic on major Linux forums. To tell you the truth, if you play Linux, you have to play Little Linux. The big Linux is soft and the little Linux is hard. Recently, I heard that someone is planning to set up an online store with a small Linux distribution, whose name is kept secret for the time being. The key to the success of this move lies in whether the instructions for the small Linux distribution are authentic and applicable. Although I can't write the instruction manual for the small Linux distribution, I will cheat for it.

After reading the above, do you have any further understanding of the great use of small Linux distributions? If you want to know more knowledge or related content, please follow the industry information channel, thank you for your support.
