BeaFanatIX (or BFX)a small Linux distribution based on Ubuntu. It is fully usable as a LiveCD and ISO image is smaller than 200MB. It was originally a remaster of BeatrIX but now uses a more recent Ubuntu.

BFX2 is a customized Ubuntu 5.10 “Breezy Badger” and is a very small version of it. In order to get a fast bootable CD, it uses the techniques from Knoppix, but only a small portion of all the dedicated Knoppix packages got into BFX2 and then got customized to match the needs. Some parts were actually replaced by BFX2 packages.

The latest version 2006.2_r4 is based on Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy Badger.

The project changed its name to Debris.
