There are good linux distributions for console only x86 machines. I use voyage linux, which is a bit dated. Alpine linux is also a good choice, but a bit more difficult.
- cpach 8y agoWhy not just Ubuntu, Debian or Fedora?

The biggest issue is they aren't designed for read-only partitions which is necessary for certain types of flash memory.
