12 April 1016: antiX v16-b1 full
Beta release for testing. i386 for 32 bit processors. The iso fits on a cd or small USB stick.

*** Uses only 70 MB RAM upon boot, + Iceweasel (on heavy airbnb website), Libreoffice, Gparted and Geany = 240 MB (see the screenshots) ***

Note from the uploader: After installing it on an eleven years old AMD 3000 with 1 GB RAM (belongs to a neighboors old Mama :), me and my colleagues attest antiX is one of the best Operating system to leep using older machines at an excellent speed Tips:
Make sure to try the antiX system Adblocker from systems panel.
For brand newbies prefer the "MX" version [3] or HandyLinux :)

antiX-16-b1 brings quite a few changes:

- Installer should be prettier to look at without losing its functionality. This is a work in progress.
- Many goodies when running antiX live, e.g. Save information on the LiveUSB even if home or root persistence are not enabled.
- 4.4.2 kernel so those cheap netbooks that have flooded the market will work correctly (many need 4.3 kernel and later)
- UEFI support in the installer. Work in progress and works for 64 bit only.

Saved information includes:

1) LiveUSB-Storage Feature
2) SaveState Feature
3) BIOS Bootloader "F8 Save" -- save
4) UEFI Bootloader "Customize (with text menus)"
5) Sticky boot options

- LiveUSB-Storage Feature

LiveUSB-Storage directories are created for the root user and the demo users. This gives you easy, direct access to store files on the LiveUSB without having to enable persistence. The only size limitation is the size of the LiveUSB partition You can disable this with the "nostore" cheat.

...

Testing:
anticapitalista and the antiX team are particularly interested in finding out how well the iso-snapshot app works as well as running live with persistence and remastering the running live session.
