About Salix

Salix is a GNU/Linux distribution based on Slackware that is simple, fast and easy to use, with stability being a primary goal. Salix is also fully backwards compatible with Slackware, so Slackware users can benefit from Salix repositories, which they can use as an "extra" quality source of software for their favorite distribution. Like a bonsai, Salix is small, light & the product of infinite care.

Features

  • one application per task on the installation ISO
  • fully backwards compatible with Slackware
  • optimized for desktop usage
  • high quality package repositories with dependency support
  • incredibly fast package tools
  • simple & fully localized system administration tools
  • nice artwork
  • supports 32-bit and 64-bit architectures

Installation

The installation is text dialog based, but easy to navigate and complete. It is also very fast; a "full" mode installation will take less than 5 minutes on any modern PC.
Salix has three different modes of installation:
  1. Full: Everything that is included in the iso is installed. That includes a complete desktop environment and a complete selection of applications that matches the respective environment, always following the "one application per task" rationale.
  2. Basic: This installs only a basic desktop environment, with very few extra applications installed on top, such as a web browser and the gslapt package manager. Ideal for advanced users that would like to install a lightweight desktop environment and add their own choice of applications.
  3. Core: Only the minimum essentials for a console system to start are included. A graphical environment is not provided. This is ideal if you are an experienced user and want to customize your installation for any specific purpose, such as a web server, file server etc.
All three installation modes come with a complete development environment, so users don't need to add anything to start developing and compiling applications.

Salix is available in several editions, each built around and focused on a different Desktop Environment or Window Manager. In this page, you can find iso images forXfce, KDE and Ratpoison editions of Salix.
Older releases are available through the Salix project page at Sourceforge.
If instead of the iso images, you are looking for the packages that are included in the Salix repositories, you can download them through one of our repository mirrors.
The iso images that are available for download here are not Live images. They boot into the standard Salix installer, which is a text-mode dialog-based installer.
