cs.edu Edition of Slax Live GNU/Linux

The cs.edu edition of the Slax aims at providing the richness of GNU/Linux as a development environment to computer science students. The 650 MB of this CD are packed with programming tools and reference documentation. This distribution also tries to remain true to the Slackware tradition of simplicity.

Due to its old age, the software on this LiveCD is likely to be full of security holes. This website is here only for reference.
