Slax Linux

I wasn't able to access Puppy Linux from my USB the other day. I was prompted with a dialog stating that Puppy's start-up files could not be found. I didn't have a copy of Puppy with me, but I did have a copy of Slax that I had recently downloaded.

Although USB Slax Linux is larger than Puppy Slax does fits comfortably on my Lexar 512MB Firefly. Slax offers all the applications that I need when I am away from my desk. I love Puppy's simple and efficient interface, but Slax offers a fully implemented Samba, the KDE desktop (which I am familiar with) and other features that make it an excellent Linux distribution to have on hand.
