AntiX is a lightweight distribution based on Debian. For those who do not know Debian means reliability.
The latest version of the project is based on Debian 12 'Bookworm' and features sysVinit or runit software along with the latest as well as older kernels for wider hardware support.
A list of basic packages is available at announcement of the release of the project. Let's mention a few:
“antiX 23 'Arditi del Popolo' is a new version based on Debian 'Bookworm'. As usual, we offer completely systemd-free and elogind flavors for both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. There are ISO image files available with SysVInit or Runit. The 32-bit version uses a non-pae kernel Note: after installing antiX-23_x64-full versions, the default kernel will be “Modern” 6.1 even if “Legacy” 5.10 was booted during Live boot..
Changes: based on Debian 12 “Bookworm”, but without systemd/libsystemd0 and elogind/libelogind0, eudev instead of udev, custom Linux kernel 5.10.188, custom Linux kernel 6.1.42 (x64 full only): LibreOffice 7.5.5; Firefox 102.14.0esr (antiM3onkey2). 17 (antiX-base), Claws Mail 4.1.1, CUPS for printing, PipeWire/WirePlumber in full versions, ALSA in basic and basic versions…”
The distribution is available in four versions, varying in size from largest to smallest: Full, Base, Core and Net.
