JayOS is a live CD distro intended for use as a more secure mobile environment. JayOS integrates in-RAM filesystem encryption with plausible deniability for a system that can be difficult to alter without rebuilding.
This offers a user with a high degree of data integrity; since all filesystems are either static or encrypted, the system is resistant to physical attacks.
Features 2.6 kernel, unionfs, many network security and filesystem tools, UML, and QEMU. It runs well on low-end x86 hardware, and requires only 128MB RAM and a bootable CD drive to get started.
There is some PowerPC support. Also included is standard desktop software. It is based on Linux From Scratch.
What's New in This Release:
The Web site was updated to be more user-friendly.
A new hcreate script will build an ISO with a blessed HFS+ filesystem suitable for booting Intel machines with EFI firmware.
