Kanotix is a Linux distribution based on Debian
"sid". It usually
contains the latest packages and kernels, carefully patched with fixes
and drivers for most modern hardware. Although it can be used as a live
CD, it also includes a simple graphical installer for easy hard disk
installation.
Kanotix will run as a LiveCD on practically any computer --
automatically detecting and configuring most hardware. It is ideal for
analysis, data rescue, forensic work, removal
of viruses on Win-PCs - or simply for safe surfing and mailing in an
internet cafe.
Kantoix uses KDE
as its desktop environment, although GNOME
is also
available.
