Slax
Slax is a minimalist desktop live CD based on Slackware Linux. It boots into a simple desktop using the Fluxbox window manager which offers a small collection of applications, including the Chromium web browser, a text editor and a calculator. Prior to version 9.x, Slax was a Slackware-based live CD featuring the KDE desktop and a wide collection of pre-installed software for daily use together with useful recovery tools for system administrators. After releasing version 11.x with a Debian base, the project returned to a Slackware base for version 15.0.0.

Distribution Release: Trinity Rescue Kit 3.4 |
 |
Tom Kerremans has announced Trinity Rescue Kit 3.4, a Mandriva-based distribution designed to facilitate data rescue from Linux and Windows systems: "Big news from the Trinity Rescue Kit camp: an all new version of the live distro has just been published after almost a year of silence. The biggest visible enhancement here is the addition of a menu interface. Not a graphical one, but a text based, scrollable menu from which any regular computer user can perform otherwise complicated tasks. TRK 3.4 has received numerous feature additions like 'winclean', a home brewed utility to perform offline Windows disk cleaning, a new virusscan engine in the seriously debugged virusscan tool, rewritten winpass (password reset tool) which is way more tamperproof, complete manpages for TRK's own utilities, a quick and dirty guide for the impatient, and literally thousands of other changes...."

Development Release: Trinity Rescue Kit 3.3 Beta, Build 304 |
 |
Tom Kerremans has announced a new development build of Trinity Rescue Kit (TRK) 3.3, a small Mandriva-based live CD aimed at system rescue, repair, password resets and cloning. What's new? "Major nifty feature addition in this release: boot other TRKs over the network from a running TRK - you can now boot a TRK from CD or USB stick and then boot other machines over PXE without any change to your network environment. Next, there are a few bug fixes. The biggest bug fix is the fact that on many computers 'mountallfs' just hung. Apparently it was the kernel built-in NTFS driver that froze. Another fix is for USB bootable TRKs. On certain volumes it refused to read the volume label because it stated the volume was dirty. I added a parameter to ignore the dirty state so TRK can continue. The third minor bug fix is in VirusScan." Read the full release announcement for more details. Download (MD5): trinity-rescue-kit.3.3-build-304.iso (111MB).
