Salix OS

This video is an overview of Slackware and its main derivatives. Slackware was created by Patrick Volkerding in 1993 and was originally based on the Softlanding Linux System (or SLS). It has since been the basis for many other distros, most notably the early versions of SUSE. To this day, Slackware is a completely independent project and remains the oldest Linux distribution still maintained, older even than Debian!

It is in Italian, but auto translate works surprisingly well. I actually didn't know SUSE was initially based on Slackware.

The second linux i used was suse 4.2 i think when i bought a cd disk from papasotiriou in Athens. The first linux was redhat 5.0. I did not like suse which was slow. Redhat was much better. Of cource till try Slackware 9.0 and 10.0 later.
Memories back on 1998.
