As usual New Zealand Repository is dysfunctional and I cannot reach it from Australia. This is the very reason I stopped testing it with the old kernel.
I could not get XFC4.
It supported GNOME last time round.
I manged to download 26,rcl version today under 5 minutes.
Thank YOU.
I usually do my downloads on Sundays.
AntiX installs in less than 5 minutes. Took little bit of time on GRUB.
I erased REBORN OS my favourite with an excellent GRUB.
AntiX has its own installer based on old and defunct MEPIS Linux. MEPIS introduced me to Debian
It has its unique Package Manager similar to CachyOS style.
Updating is the fitst thing I do and add Synaptic Package Manager.
Updating was brisk under 5 minutes.
I have no hesitation recommending it even though it was bit SLOW in bringing the new kernel. I did not try version 25 which probably was unsuccessful.
I wonder whether it has conflicts with SystemD init.
This is a Debian based light weight Linux Distribution which run on 512MB RAM both on old and new hardware.
It went into almost hibernation after 23.4 version which is only 1.9GB.
It is useful as a distribution on a USB stick.
After PUPPY Linux went into dormancy I used it as a Testing Linux Distribution.
It is full of utilities and run on 4 Window Managers.
No Desktop as such.
I found new version labeled as 26.rcl.
This is based on Debian Trixie.
I am trying to download it but the direct download broke down several times.
I failed to download the new version.
It is SystemD Free and MX Linux is based on it.
It probably comes from Greek part of Cyprus and is Greek based.
