BuddaPup is a Linux operating system that leverages the capabilities of Enlightenment E-17 and Puppy Linux. It is designed to provide users with a user-friendly interface, a fast and efficient performance, and a wide range of features and tools.
One of the key features of Puppy Linux, upon which BuddaPup is based, is its incredibly small footprint. Despite being a full-featured operating system, Puppy can boot into a 64MB RAM disk, meaning that the entire system is loaded into RAM within seconds. Unlike other live-Cd distributions, Puppy requires no installation and can run entirely in RAM.
Puppy is also incredibly versatile when it comes to booting options. It can boot from a variety of devices including a flash card, USB memory device, CDROM, zip disk, LS/120/240 Superdisk or floppy disks. Furthermore, Puppy Linux occupies just 50-60MB on storage media, leaving you with plenty of space for other files.
Although Puppy can be booted on systems with only 32MB of RAM, it is recommended to have a minimum of 128MB to run most applications smoothly. In addition, Puppy will automatically utilize a swap partition if one exists, which can greatly enhance performance. A swap partition may be necessary to run larger applications such as Firefox or Mozilla on systems with less than 64MB of RAM.
Overall, BuddaPup is an impressive Linux distribution that offers a lightweight yet powerful computing experience. Its clean interface and bundled software make it an ideal choice for anyone looking to explore the world of Linux.
