Klinux is a Linux distribution that can be installed in MS-Windows without formatting or partitioning the FAT32 partition.
The Klinux project is a Linux distribution reviewed by software enthusiasts. What sets Klinux apart from other distributions is its ability to be installed within MS-Windows on a FAT32 Partition without any formatting, partitioning, or changing the boot loader. This means that the installation process is significantly quicker and hassle-free compared to other Linux distributions.
Klinux comes in a comprehensive Linux system, packed into a 570 MB ISO image ready to burn to one CD-ROM. It can easily be installed from MS-Windows (XP, 2000, Me, 9x) with just a few clicks, without partitioning, formatting, or changing the bootloader for your disk. This means that all software and services are easily accessible with just a simple process.
This new release comes with notable updates such as booting on WinXP and Win2000 by adding Klinux entry to boot.ini. It also includes the option to boot by floppy disk or Klinux CD-ROM, and for advanced users, allow them to install Grub into MBR and boot Klinux or MS-Windows. Klinux Update uses EXT3 FS in Image files (Loopback). Additionally, there are two kernels that come with this new version, namely kernel 2.4.22 with its source and kernel 2.6.11.6.
The latest update has notable programs included such as Blender 2.34, K3B 0.11.17, Arson 0.9.8 beta2, Qamoos 0.1, and the security update from www.slackware.com up to 18-Nov-2004. Moreover, programs are regularly updated to stay up to date with the latest software versions. Some of which include Gaim 1.0, KOffice1.3.4, FireFox 1.0.1, XPDE5.1 beta, and GamBas0.99 RC1.
