Features

SliTaz can be booted as a live system or installed on the hard drive, when booting the entire system is loaded into RAM. If you booted from a CD -Rom, which can be removed after booting, the drive will then be available again. Since the system is running in RAM, you can work smoothly even on old computers, programs start quickly on computers with slow hard drives. SliTaz provides a complete and fast graphical interface with minimal hardware requirements.

Hardware Requirements

The current version requires at least 256 MB Ram. Installed on the hard disk fails the system uses about 100 MB. For older computers that do not comply in particular with respect to the capacity of the RAM to the minimum requirements, there is a smaller version, the Loram version. There are Loram version for systems with 24 MB, 32 MB or 64 MB Ram.

Practice

To get the full functionality when operating from a CD -ROM to your personal documents and settings to external media such as a USB flash drive or a hard disk can store.

SliTaz can be expanded via its own package system. About the Package Manager Tazpkg, which now has a GUI software can be easily managed. More than 2300 packages in the stable and 2400 packages in the cooking version are available in the archives.
