This version is build using SaLT (Salix Live Technology), a new system of Live tools for Slackware-based distros: https://salix.svn.sourceforge.net/svnro ... alt/trunk/ (See the README for all the features)
This includes the same applications and packages as the regular Salix Xfce 13.37, 32 or 64 bits, with the following additions:
- isomaster, for managing ISO files;
- gparted, for managing partitions;
- grub2, for a beautiful boot menu and options;
- remmina, for connecting to RDP server (like Windows or VirtualBox 4+), VNC server, NX server, SSH/SCP;
- salix-live-installer, for installing Salix on a hard disk;
- persistence-wizard, for creating a persistence file in order to keep changes upon reboot in the live environment;
- liveclone, for creating your own custom live CD/USB.
- identfile, to change the file looked into the live CD. Only useful for those who remaster this beta version;
- savefile, to change the file looked for the persistence file.
The default root password is live.
You don't need a password for the regular and auto-logged in user one.
