PapugLinux minimal GNU/Linux live CD based on the Gentoo Linux.

PapugLinux is a minimal GNU/Linux live CD based on the Gentoo Linux distribution for x86 computer architecture.

The live CD allow you to run the operating system without installing anything on your hard drive.

The goal of PapugLinux is to provide a minimal but functional free operating system and to be runable on most computers, from 64MB old systems to the latest powerful configurations.

Release plan.

We plan to provide two releases of PapugLinux by year. If a critical security update or a major release of a PapugLinux main component appears beetwen two releases, an intermediate snapshot could be made.

The version labels are build including the two digit year followed by a release indicator (YY.r). Version numbers with third field will be used for intermediates snapshots and/or pre-releases.
