What are some live operating systems? I already have Knoppix and I'm Downloading SuSE Live, but are there anymore? I'd like to try something that is not Linux too.

I recommend BeOS. It's much simpler to use than Linux.

Um, is that a live OS?

I couldn't find it saying it was anywhere.

Oh, you mean runnable from the CD. There is a live version of BeOS here.

There is also a live version of QNX.

Put a Slackware Live CD in thurr.

Calum · « **Reply #7 on:** 11 November 2003, 02:34 »

how could i forget slackware live?
incidentally, slackware live is not from the same maintainer as slackware and zipslack, which might be confusing to begin with.

gah! here: look at section 1.2:
http://www.ranting.org/distros.pdf
(note from Orethrius: link is dead, no forwarding address)

there's quite a few we didn't mention yet, like the BBC (bootable business card) and Damn Small Linux (which i haven't tried yet). also Floppix i liked, the site has tons of floppix tutorials, but it is purely educational since it has no capability of accessing your hard drive (for newbies, this is supposedly a feature)

Now there is Mandrake Move too.

(note from Orethrius: Mandrake Move is now Mandriva Linux One)

Another Slackware based one called SLAX featuring KDE 3.2 Beta 2 and KOffice 1.3 Beta 2.

And who is the judge of this. To a person familiar with enterprise unix, linux is easier. To a person who likes simple installs Linux is still easier. Ever try Lindows? Makes life simple.

www.mepis.org
