We are pleased to announce the availability of FaunOS-shadow-0.5.4-stable. FaunOS is a fully integrated Linux distribution with 637 packages installed and configured for use. Based on Arch Linux, FaunOS is optimized for the i686 architecture, and specifically designed to run from a 1GB or larger portable USB flash drive. A live DVD version is also available. The USB version allows saving changes back to the USB flash drive. FaunOS includes PacTrac which allows easy installation and upgrade of over 4200 binary packages from the combined FaunOS and Arch Linux software repositories. FaunOS can also be permanently installed to a hard drive.
