SLAX has similar goals with little bit bigger base...
Fun facts:
- SLAX was Slackware based, but it switched to Debian base (apt)
- The first 'linux-live-kit' was from Slax's author.
- It used layered filesystem (overlayfs) long before Docker & containers were a thing.
- It had 'persistence' while running off the usb, via 'file' or partition. (Then Ubuntu did similar thing with casper-rw <- term for squashfs+overlay persistence in ubuntu)
