[ale] peppermint vs puppylinux vs others

[Boris Borisov]

I've just tried the new beta of Antix linux. Based on Debian testing you
have up to date software drivers and whatnot. You can do normal HDD install
or frugal install or just use persistent storage with Live USB or CD or
DVD. Comes in two flavors systemd and regular init process. Also comes full
CD or base CD I use full.
The last one is MX 14. Give it shot
