User Feedback :: DSL Clone!?
Hi, I'm the developer of Feather Linux. Yes, it is quite similar to Damn Small. However, I didn't remaster Damn Small, I took Knoppix 3.3 and worked down from there. I used quite a few of the applications (although not the actual binaries; I compiled those myself) and ideas from Damn Small - I asked John, and he said he didn't mind. I wouldn't call it a clone myself, but you can if you want:(
Well.. sorry for being so critical, I was not saying it was bad... just pointing out that DSL has more competition =) And competition is a good thing... I mean look what happens when there is only one OS that has most of the market?
(I chaned the link btw >=D, and added a changelog)
Ty-Men:
No insults intended. I LOVE downloading the light Linux distros....whether it be the single floppy "Tomsrtbt", BasicLinux, or Feather/DSL/Knoppix. You guys do the impossible (in my mind anyway)...and it is appreciated.
Please don't take the comments in the wrong context.
Bottom line: The WORST Linux is STILL better than the "best" Windows...on so many levels.

Nah, I don't mind if DSL is currently better! John's been working on it for a far longer time than I have; it's only natural that his product is better at the moment.
ImNotHere, it has parted, partimage, antiword and other stuff too, not just a BitTorrent program
