The main goal of ZenEdu Live is to give to nursery and primary school teachers a stable Linux-based operating system, which can be easily installed with all the tools needed for their daily educational work.

"Along with the legendary speed, lightness & full multimedia support you can expect from a Zenwalk derived production, key

features include the famed educational suite Gcompris, the universal OpenOffice suite & the indispensable over-the-network teaching & viewing tool iTALC, already pre-configured with teacher/student parameters. Thanks to lzma compression, we were able to include educational programs ranging from astronomy, chemistry, languages, math, music, etc... all the way to simple programming" - says Pierrick Le Brun.

What is Zenwalk Linux? The developers say it's a GNU/Linux operating system that has the following features:

￭ Modern and user-friendly - by using the latest stable software and selected applications;
￭ Fast - because it's optimized for performance capabilities;
￭ Rational - it uses one mainstream application for each task;
￭ Complete - it is a full development/desktop/multimedia environment;
￭ Evolutionary - Zenwalk uses a simple network package management tool called netpkg.

If you want to install Zenwalk GNU/Linux, then you should have at least a Pentium III class processor, 128MB of RAM and 2GB of free space on your hard drive.
