PuppyLinux is a small Linux distribution intended to be fully featured. Started by Barry Kauler, it has stated goals of installing easily to most common storage media; fitting entirely into 128 MB of RAM when booted from CD; minimizing writes when booted from a USB device; having a user-friendly interface; booting and executing quickly; containing many common types of familiar software. These goals are intended to allow PuppyLinux to run well on older PCs, as well as on smaller modern PCs.
