Elive Linux

 My Dear Friends
 

I Installed ELive in Spare NUC I have and it made a hash of the GRUB and it did not boot.

I finally reformatted and installed Debian 21.9.0 and Parrot OS .

MX Linux remained OK. 

All are now booting fine.

Elive (Enlightenment live) – a lightweight, live GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian and featuring the Enlightenment window manager.
The distribution can be used as a live CD/USB using separated live images or can be installed on a hard drive. Up to version 2.0 “Topaz”, Elive was available as a free live iso image, but installation module had to be bought.

Administration of Elive can be managed via its custom application called ‘Elpanel’, which was developed especially for Elive.
New packages and updates can be managed via Synaptic Package Manager and the text based APT tool.

Elive was under development between 2005 and 2010, when the project has been dropped.
The first two versions of Elive 0.1 and 0.2 were based on Knoppix.
The 3rd one was changed to Morphix as its base system.
Starting from Elive 0.4, the system has been moved to Debian.
The last stable version of Elive 2.0 was released in March 2010.

After 3 years of break, the developers started the project again.
The current version 2.6.x is still in beta stage.

Elive is available for i386 CPU based (or newer) machines. 

Attached is a comment about Elive Linux.
 

Just go to its home page and download by torrent.

It has two Isos one for Live and for Install and another for USB booting.

Making a bootable USB was a bit of a hassle but worth tying (8-GiB stick is necessary) a persistent volume.

 

It has beautiful desktop effects.
 

It is basically meant for installation BUT not for live sessions.
