Hi, I'm Lexi!
I've not been to a WLUG meeting since ... since a long time .... I remember a Blender talk, and a Maddog talk - and these look like circa 2003/2004.... So, absent a long time!
Anyways. I am trying to find the time to come again.
I've been a casual Linux user since 1998, when I installed Debian from a pile of floppies (( or should I say, my friend installed it for me, and my learning journey began )) .... and for a long time I was an exclusive user .... and at heart I think I am still - even as I flog along a 10 year old iMac.
But for a couple years now, on my laptop I've been running 'Tiny Core Linux' , which if you're unfamiliar with it, it is based on the Linux From Scratch work, with an emphasis on a 'tiny' footprint. Needed additional software are mounted into ram from squashfs archives, on the fly. It is quirky, but I like it. I wondered if anyone else has used it (or uses it).
I didn't feel right just asking blindly, without a vague reintroduction of myself.
So - question: Anyone else use, now or previously, the Tiny Core Linux Distribution? [*]
Thanks,
Lexi Haley (WPI CS 2002)
