Manjaro 0.8.10īased on Arch Linux and provides a familiar look and feel to users migrating from Windows. “dd” the ISO to a USB flash drive to make a bootable flash drive. Lightweight and provides the Openbox desktop environment. The distro is under development (Alpha stage) at the time of writing. Tested versions are recorded because older versions might not have UEFI support. We tested these distros on a UEFI VM and as there was no option to enable Secure Boot we can only claim that these work fine with Secure Boot disabled. We have only tested x86_64 ISOs as UEFI is more common on 64-bit hardware. While we couldn’t find distros as light as Slitaz, we found some less than 800MB distros which work out of the box on UEFI devices. There are hacks to make them work (like I did for Slitaz or ArchBang in the past, introducing rEFInd etc.) but end-users will definitely look for something that works out of the box. But how about some relatively lightweight distros which can boot fast, from from USB and are useful for quick browsing sessions without saving anything on the disk? Unfortunately, UEFI support is still not very common across Linux distros. ![]()
