Voyager Linux

Voyager Linux is pretty good for a newbie.

It is Ubuntu on steroids.

It is Ubuntu on steroids even though the desktop looks like Gnome.

It configures the WiFi smoothly.

It has plenty of utilities

It has Private FireFox browser in addition to normal Firefox but one has to download it.

It has SNAP in addition to Synaptic Package Manager. 

The to package managers do not synchronize and install two editions of the same application.

I always install AbiWord and it had two.

Only the one installed with the Synaptic Package Manager opens and the other in the container freezes. 

This is why I always favour (not SNAP) Synaptic or Flathub.

Installer is plain and simple Ubuntu Installer.

Icons are big and good for old guy like me.

Installer detected the 20 odd partitions correctly.

It has Gparted.

Does not make me to install it on my NUC.

Puppy Linux Derivatives

 1. Foss Pup

This is posted with Fossa PUP, Ubuntu Version in Live Mode. It supports support NoteCase, AbiWord and Xournal.

Has Htop, Gparted, Transmission and more importantly FireFox

 2. Easy OS 902

I begin NOT to Love Easy OS, simply because it does not support AbiWord and Xournal.

On the plus side, it does extend the partition table to take full use of the USB and update to the latest version if the old one was 900. 

It supports Database Access.

It has bulky LibreOffice and let you install OpenOffice, too

Puppy  Linux was meant to be light weight.

 3. FatPup

Then there is FatPup 902 which has LibreOffice and no AbiWord.

With FatPup Linux on Box Utility, the mouse point got stuck inside and it could not be retrieved.

4. Vanilla Pup.

Vanilla Pup is similar to FossaPup and has all the old utilities. 

One can get LibreOfifce, if one desires.

Puppy Linux is my answer to Bulky KDE Linux derivatives.

All these images are less than 1GB and LibreOffice takes about 1GB space.

Puppy Linux went into hibernation and now all of them support 64 bits.

5. MultiSystem 64 bit version has No EFI booting facility and does not boot when written into a USB.

It has to be booted from a DVD and I wanted put all the Puppy Versions to a single USB and boot.

I do not have any DVDs and if I did I would have tried MultiSystem on our old Laptop.

Laptop has Endless OS and I upgraded it to the latest 6-version.

On a different note, I can say all Puppy Linux derivatives can be run on BOX utility and I do not need to use MultSystem boot.
