AUSTRUMI is a Live CD Linux distribution based on Slackware Linux, using'Blin' initialization scripts. AUSTRUMI has an Enlightenment desktop environment and you won't believe how much software and games it has in only 50 MB. AUSTRUMI will run even on an old Intel-compatible (Pentium Pro or later) CPU with at least 128 MB of RAM.

Let's have a look at the software AUSTRUMI comes with:

Graphic ■ gimageview - image browser ■ GIMP - Image Manipulation Program ■ InkScape - SVG editor

I have to admit, that last time I tested AUSTRUMI, I think version 0.9.5, it was based on a FVWM'95 window manager and was not "pretty" at all, but version 1.2.0 comes with Enlightenment as desktop environment and a 2.6.16.14 Kernel - a "beauty", the visual effects are superb; let's look at the pictures:
