#knoppix — Public Fediverse posts

@StefanBlasel Gibt es noch Linux-Live-Systeme auf USB-Stick, so wie es früher #Knoppix auf CD gab, ohne es installieren zu müssen? Damit das Laufwerk mounten (verschlüsseltes NTFS könnte spannend werden) und die Datei über eine nun wieder funktionierende Schnittstelle herunterladen.

BEGIN RANT

I used Linux, many distros*, as my primary desktop and everywhere else from 1998 to 2012. I used Unix starting in 1982, with Macintoshes off and on since their introduction.

In 2012, I moved my primary "desktop" to a MacBook. I liked it a lot, and a Mac is still my primary desktop. Since I retired in 2015, I maintain very few servers.

So my Linux sysadmin skills have atrophied.

🐢 Wow, it's 2023, and we're still using CDs! What's next, floppy disks for a retro thrill? 😹 KNOPPIX: because why shouldn't your OS come on a shiny coaster with endless possibilities for collecting dust? 🚀

Seht mal her über was ich mal wieder gestolpert bin.

Wenn dieser olle PC-Vertriebler damals bloß gewusst hätte dass seine Billigheimerei mir einen PC ohne Windows zu verkaufen dazu führen würde, dass ich später nichts anderes mehr nutze?
Hätte er es dann trotzdem gemacht? War ja langfristig geschäftsschädigend für die Branche.
Ich könnte heute glücklicher Windowsnutzer sein!
Doch mein erster sellbstgekaufter PC kam ohne OS und mit einer Linux Live CD ... und der Rest ist Geschichte.

Remember that massive Debian family tree thread? It officially has a home on my Codeberg now.

I have cleaned it up, fixed the links, and organized it so it is easier to navigate. If you are looking for a non-Ubuntu Debian based distro, this is a decent place to start.

View the list here: https://codeberg.org/resplendent606/terminal-tilt/src/branch/main/docs/debian-distros.md

Pull Requests are welcome, or you can just tell me here.

I love using Debian. I think it is so interesting that so many distros have been or currently are based on Debian. While I prefer vanillia Debian, I wanted to list all of the Debian based distros (non-Ubuntu) I know of and categorize them based on what makes them unique.

Daily Drivers (Ease of use):

LMDE - Linux Mint + Debian, no Ubuntu, Mint polish
MX Linux - MXTools is helpful
Deepin - Beautiful, preconfigured desktop, from China.
Peppermint_OS – Lightweight, cloud integrated, snappy
Neptune - Polished KDE Plasma on stable Debian w/newer kernels.
SpiralLinux – Pure Debian with modern defaults (Btrfs, ZRAM).
SolydXK – Simplified XFCE/KDE desktops for stability.
Lingmo OS / Mauna Linux / Br OS - Recent, beautiful desktops (China/Brazil)

Modern/Atomic (Immutable):

Vanilla OS - Atomic updates, can run Fedora/Arch apps via Apx.
blendOS - Atomic, lets you choose DE (KDE, XFCE, etc), can install applications from other Linux distros.
Nitrux - Immutable, no systemd (OpenRC), Maui shell, immutable, heavy reliance on AppImage

High Performance and Gaming:

Siduction - Rolling release based on Debian Sid.
SparkyLinux - Great for gaming, newer drivers.
PikaOS - Gaming with high-performance kernel opimizations.

Multimedia/Creative:

AV Linux (MX Edition) – Preconfigured w/low-latency kernel for audio production.

Minimalist:

BashCore - Ultra minimalist, branding free CLI environment.
Slax - Modular, tiny, runs from a USB stick.

Performance and Old Hardware (Lightweight):

antiX - No systemd, runs on a toaster (256MB RAM)
CrunchBang++ (#!++)- Minimalist, Debian + Openbox, continuation of original Crunchbang.
BunsenLabs - minimalist OpenBox, keyboard centric.
Window Maker Live - 90s NeXTSTEP look, fast, retro.
Puppy Linux (DPup) - Runes entirely on RAM, fast.
Elive - Enlightenment desktop, high-end looks for 20 year old hardware.
Damn Small Linux - Stays under 700MB.
wattOS - Low power consumption and simplicity.
Q4OS – Trinity desktop, can mimic Windows XP/7.
Commodore OS Vision - Retro computing aesthetic.

Security, Privacy, and Stealth:

Qubes OS - Isolates everything inside Xen VMs, has Debian and Fedora as default templates.
Tails - Amnesic "Snowden" OS, leaves no trace on hardware.
Whonix - Extreme privacy via dual-VM gateway/workstation.
Kodachi - Hardened, pre-routed live OS alternative to Tails.
Septor – Surf the web anonymously.
Kicksecure - Hardened Debian layer (the base for Whonix).

IT and SysAdmin Toolbox:

Kali Linux/Parrot OS - "Hackerman" suites for penetration testing.
GParted Live/Dr. Parted - Disk partitioning
Grml/Finnix/Knoppix - "Oh Shit Buttons", emergency ktis for broken PCs.
SysLinuxOS/Kaisen - Built for network admins and system integrators.

Servers, Cloud, and Self Hosting:

2003: Fedora Core Linux (called as #Fedora Linux now) as a continuation of of #redhat linux. Fedora was also the first time linux was used as my primary OS on my PC and laptop.

Say you need to run some obscure, ancient #DOS utility, maybe something from a relic like *Hiren’s BootCD*. 💾

You (or a friend) have an old diskless PC lying around.
No USB? No problem as long as it still has a working CD/DVD drive.
(Younger folks may need to Google what that is. 😄)

Boot it up with the Knoppix DVD version that includes Wine, and you’re set.
No secret rituals. No ten-step how-to thread required.

1️⃣ Open a terminal, create a working folder, and `cd` into it.
2️⃣ Run `wineconsole`.
3️⃣ Ignore any garbage output or “missing components” warnings.
4️⃣ Voilà — a black box window appears. You’re in DOS now.

“Hooray!” Or “Yahoo!” ...whichever flavor of joy your inner 1990s self prefers. 😎

As the fate would have it, now I stumbled upon @nickbearded

Nick, interesting project you have there. But again, just like in case of #Knoppix why the hesitation to share to build scripts? Is it simply not convenient?

"No source code, build scripts, or internal configuration files are distributed or made public."

Am I wrong, or was Knoppix 9.1 DVD the *last* LiveCD Linux distro that came with Wine preinstalled?

Such a gem, boot and go, with a ton of apps ready out of the box. Then from v9.2 on, it became exclusive to a German IT magazine... and, apparently, the German language too.

Curiously, even though it’s all *open source*, good luck actually finding it.
What are those Germans hiding, source code or secret sausages? 😅🥨

Happy 25th Birthday, KNOPPIX!

KNOPPIX is a live Linux distribution based on Debian that is designed to be run from either the USB flash drive or the CD-ROM. It was one of the first popular live Linux distributions that was made by a German Linux consultant, Klaus Knopper. Currently, KNOPPIX contains open-source software that are bundled with the live distribution, along with some of the proprietary software.

The latest version available for general download is KNOPPIX 9.1, which was released on January 25th, 2021. Since then, 9.2 and 9.3 were released exclusively to the subscribers of Linux Magazin German as a physical DVD in April 2021 and June 2022 under DELUG-DVD.

The very first version of KNOPPIX was released as version 1.4 on September 30th, 2000, which marks the start of the project. Since then, various versions, including the remarkable 7.2.0 released June 24th, 2013, were made.

So, we are celebrating the 25th birthday of KNOPPIX!

Here’s the version history of KNOPPIX (source: Wikipedia):

The latest version that is available for public download is 9.1, which was released to bring improvements and new features, compared to the previous versions. It also includes Chromium for web browsing, as well as all the other software that was bundled in previous Knoppix versions. It uses the LXDE desktop environment, which is suitable for lightweight system usage to make it suitable for old PCs.

If we managed to get our hands on the very first version of KNOPPIX, we’ll make a review article on it as soon as we get it working. We are open for any links that point to KNOPPIX 1.4. The file names were knoppix-1.4-30-9-2000-DE.iso and knoppix-1.4-30-9-2000-ALS.iso.

Tell us your experience of KNOPPIX in the comments section; we can’t wait to hear them from you!
