| This is not meant to be heretical, but there are other distributions that may be better suited for minimal hardware situations, etc. The idea for this page was suggested via the dynebolic mailing list |
There are other distributions that are also suited for minimal hardware situations, optimized to not waste your time and money, with a non-business minded phiosophy. Here we gather some links, the idea for this page was suggested by jaromil via the dynebolic mailing list |

| No doubt the format will change - this is only the beginning. For instance, the list below could be (should be?) links to and brief descriptions of these distros. |
he is now mantaining such a list on the website http://bricolabs.net/operating-systems You can help completing the list below with more links and brief descriptions of the distros. Please don't add any distro that is not especially optimized. Dyne.org follows certain quality standards in the software that it does, so this list should link only to third-party software that somehow matches those standards. If you are wondering, Ubuntu and Knoppix do not match: they are too bloated and require latest expensive hardware to run. |
