CRUX是一个轻量级的、为i686优化的Linux发行,它面向经验丰富的Linux用户。这份发行以简单化为主旨,这反映在其基于简单的tar.gz
格式的软件包系统上,以及BSD风格的启动脚本和相对较少的软件包收录。它的第二个着眼点则在于利用Linux的新特性以及新近的工具及系统库。 Tilman Sauerbeck has announced the first release candidate for CRUX 2.4, a light-weight, i686-optimised distributions for power users: "We have rolled the first release candidate of the upcoming CRUX 2.4 release." What's new? "Toolchain updates - CRUX 2.4 includes glibc 2.6.1, GCC 4.2.2 and Binutils 2.18. X.Org 7.3 - CRUX 2.4 ships with X.Org 7.3; note that Xprint isn't supported anymore. New ISO image - CRUX 2.4 uses a new ISO image with an initial RAM file system (initramfs) that allows for some convenient features: the boot sequence now tries to automatically detect the CD-ROM drive; the CD can be unmounted (to make way for a CD with alternative packages, for example); install can be completed remotely: boot the CD, set a root password, configure the network (dhcpcd included), start sshd."
