ZipSlack was a specially compiled release of the Slackware Linux distribution which was designed to be lightweight and portable. It was distributed in a ZIP archive along with the Slackware release. Installing ZipSlack only required obtaining the archive and unzipping it to the place where the user wished to install it, which means that ZipSlack did not require one to go through the process of reconfiguring your existing partitions to try or install it. == Details == ZipSlack used the UMSDOS filesystem under Linux, which means that it actually ran on top of the FAT filesystem, originally widely used by Microsoft operating systems, and commonly found today on various types of removable media such as ZIP disks, SuperDisks, USB flash drives, and Secure Digital cards. The last release of Slackware which contained ZipSlack was Slackware 11.0. Slackware 12.0 did not contain a ZipSlack setup within its distribution,〔(Slackware 12.0 distribution ). Retrieved November 6, 2007.〕 although this change was not mentioned in its release announcement.〔(Slackware 12.0 Release Announcement ). Retrieved November 6, 2007.〕 The most likely cause of this is the lack of UMSDOS support in Linux 2.6, as support for this filesystem type has been removed from the official Linux sources after some discussion〔(UMSDOS discussion on the Linux Kernel Mailing List ). Verified on November 6, 2007.〕 regarding it on the Linux Kernel Mailing List. ZipSlack was quite lightweight, excluding a great deal of the software considered “normal” on an installation of a GNU/Linux based distribution today. For example, in ZipSlack, the X Window System was not present by default, nor were any GUI based web browsers. However, since ZipSlack was essentially just a miniature installation of Slackware, you were able to use the Slackware package management system to install whatever packages you may need. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「ZipSlack」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
