Which Distro and Program Should I Use?
by NeedDistroHelp from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6NZHE)
Hello.
I have a little background in Linux distros, but I am no pro.
I am just trying to build a LiveDVD that can browse the internet and stream videos. I want to use a LiveDVD so everything is fresh when I start it up the next day, and don't have to worry about viruses.
I would also like it to come with a VPN, that I will pay for, and install it before making the LiveDVD. That way everything is ready to go when I start things up.
I don't have any requirements, other than those. The smaller the distro, the better, I suppose, since the bigger it is, the more RAM it will take up.
Which platform should I start with? Which program should I use to customize it, to add the VPN, or any codecs? Linux Live Kit, Linux From Scratch? Which is easiest, with my minimal requirements? Is there something I'm not thinking of?
Thanks!
