Windows or Linux
#25
Porteus could work for you, because they offer a variety of desktop environments. The ISO is only 500MB. It doesn't require a formal installation routine but one is available each for Windows or for another Linux just in case. I suggest doing some experimenting because I couldn't get the "savefile" feature to work on mine, on an external USB disk formatted FAT32. I have a working install because I created a 2GB "ext4" partition for the Linux-related stuff for it, the EFI partition and the FAT32 "data" partition, all in a single 16GB drive. This distribution is quite unlike Puppy, however, but it's attractive because it could act like one of the "big guys".

It would help if their main site and other places were upgraded to "secure protocol"... some people don't want to risk Firefox or other browser screaming at them "NOT SECURE" in some webpage that was opened LOL. Their forum however is "https".
