The thing is, such an iso is a lot less useful than you might imagine. Well, not to me, perhaps, nor to others like me. If the bandwidth is really an issue, you could just download the image at your local library or an internet cafe. Which is great if one lives in an urban area where libraries and ...

I've looked back several years in this suggestion thread and found nothing like it. If I didn't go back far enough and missed a very old discussion of this topic, please forgive me. I'd like to suggest that Salix release an .iso consisting only of the contents of a "core" installation. (Le...

Our fluxbox iso is currently 14.1, not 14.2 which is the latest in case you hadn't realized. Thanks for the heads-up, but I'm just a tiny bit confused.

Well, for this question, I want biased. Why else post the question here, right?
