Dr Parted Live

"Dr.Parted Live is a bootable GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian Testing. It is a live CD/USB featuring a lightweight Openbox window manager and useful applications for data backup, restore and recovery."

I downloaded and tried it out.  Booted up with no issues and is light on resources.  It found a place in my pc "toolbox.

Re: Dr Parted Live

Nice, but do we need another one?
Might have to copy that theme.

Re: Dr Parted Live

May not need another "one" but it never hurts to have too many "tools" when they are needed.

Re: Dr Parted Live

What does Dr Parted offer that might get a user to switch from one of a half dozen similar tools? I use Gparted's live iso. What's the benefit offered to entice me to change? I've also used Parted Magic. QtParted is a free version of Parted Magic.

Another tool for you.

Re: Dr Parted Live

I guess one could say the same for Linux distos.  What does one have over another?  What does one bring to the table that another does not?  What can one distro do that another can not?  Which distro is the best or better?  All subjective opinions.  Dont shoot the messenger.

I thought you checked it out and could offer some details about the distro.
No shots fired. I come in peace.
