Puppy Linux是另外一種Linux發(fā)行。它的不同之處在于，Puppy是格外的小，然而又充滿了特性。Puppy能從64M的存儲(chǔ)設(shè)備啟動(dòng)，并且，整套系統(tǒng) 都能在內(nèi)存中運(yùn)行。有很多自啟動(dòng)運(yùn)行光盤的Linux發(fā)行，它們需要不停地從光盤讀取數(shù)據(jù)才能運(yùn)行，Puppy與它們不一樣，Puppy整個(gè)裝載在內(nèi)存 中。這意味著，所有的應(yīng)用程序一眨眼的功夫就能啟動(dòng)，并且立即對(duì)用戶的輸入作出響應(yīng)。Puppy Linux能從flash卡或者是任何的USB存儲(chǔ)設(shè)備啟動(dòng)(這是flash-Puppy)，或者光盤(這是live-Puppy)，或者Zip disk及LS/120/240 Superdisk(這是zippy-Puppy)，或者軟盤(這是floppy-Puppy)，或者硬盤(這是hard-Puppy)。它甚至可以使用 一張多區(qū)段燒錄的CD-R/DVD-R以將所有內(nèi)容保存回CD/DVD中。

Barry Kauler has announced the release of Puppy Linux 5.1 "Wary" edition, a small, fast and light distribution designed for older hardware: "Wary Puppy 5.1 has been released. Wary Puppy is our Puppy Linux variant that targets support for older hardware, especially in the areas of video and analog modem dial-up. Wary Puppy 5.1 is a bug-fix and minor upgrade of Wary 5.0. The default kernel is now the long-term supported 2.6.32.28. The PET package repository is still small but is growing, with many major applications added to it. For a 'minor upgrade', rather a lot of applications have been upgraded, as well as one new one, the 'Wcpufreq' CPU frequency scaling tool, added. There have been numerous tweaks in the underlying infrastructure." Read the release announcementand check out the more detailed release notes for more information.
