Vector Linux is a small, fast, Linux operating system for Intel, AMD and x86 compatible systems, based on one of the original Linux distributions, Slackware.

The enormously popular Slackware is the true 'Unix' of Linux distributions and is used by major corporations, universities and home users alike. It's popularity stems from the fact that it is a robust, versatile and almost unbreakable system.

Slackware has been traditionally known to be about as user friendly as a coiled rattlesnake and that's where Vector Linux comes into play. We have produced a bloat free, easy to install, configure and maintain Slackware based system that is second to none.

Here are some key features of "Vector Linux":

Kernel version 2.6.7 available in ide or scsi configurations.

Glibc-2.3.2

Available as a text console system or with optional XFree GUI

XFree-4.3.x is the default X system.

New graphical package manager has been added, vecpkg.

Easy on your system resources, should run fine with a minimum of 32mb of ram

Only reguires 850 megs of disk space for full install (but you should have more available for additional programs and swap space)
