Exton|OS Light Live CD 64 bit with Openbox 3.5.2 :: build 140910

NEWS 140910 about Exton|OS Light Live CD – ISO file of 692 MB
I’ve made a new extra version of Exton|OS with only a minimum of packages pre-installed. Among them a terminal emulator (LXTerminal), a Web Browser (Chromium), PCManFM (file manager), NetworkManager, GParted (Partition Editor) and Synaptic (Package Manager). I give you the pleasure of installing all extra packages you need after a hard disk installation of Exton|OS Light. Use Synaptic for that. You can of course also install new packages while running the system live (from CD/USB stick), but nothing will be saved after a reboot. Unless you have followed my USB Install Instruction and used Boot alternative 2 – Persistent. If you have plenty of RAM you can even install big programs (such as LibreOffice) while running the system live even from CD. Exton|OS Light’s Window manager Openbox guarantees lightness and elegance.

This version of Exton|OS Light from 140910 replaces version 140524 of Exton|OS Light.

About
Exton|OS Light Live CD is based on Ubuntu 14.04.1 64 bit (released July 25, 2014) and Debian Jessie. Exton|OS Light’s ISO file (of 692 MB!) a ISO-hybrid, which means that it can very easily be transferred (copied) to an USB pen drive. You can then even run Exton|OS from the USB stick and save all your system changes on the stick. I.e. you will enjoy persistence! Read my USB INSTRUCTION.

Packages
All installed packages in Exton|OS Light have been updated to the latest available version as at September 10, 2014. Study the full package list.

Used KERNEL
My special kernel 3.16.0-7-exton, equivalent to Kernel.org’s stable kernel 3.16, released 140803.
