“Unleash the Power of Tiny Core Linux: Run Your Operating System from RAM for Lightning-Fast Performance!”
Linux-based operating systems are known for their size and complexity, often taking up a gigabyte or more of storage space. But what if we told you there was a Linux distro that can run on just 22 MB? That’s right, Tiny Core Linux has just released version 13 and it’s here to change the game.
Unlike most operating systems, Tiny Core can run completely from RAM. That means you can load and run programs like Open Office and Firefox at lightning speed. And get this, with only 48 MB of RAM, Tiny Core still runs faster than Ubuntu on a measly 2 GB. That’s 42 times less memory!
But don’t just take our word for it, check out The Lunduke Journal of Technology and the project website for more information. And while you’re at it, visit our standards page to see the ethical standards we uphold at Adafruit.
