Rogue Class is a toy Linux distribution for playing games and reading books.

2019-11-17 — It appears to be dead.
2015-05-11 — Just doesn’t do it for me. Too simple, no liveUSB, (requires?) burning to a CD. I have no clue if it can use Slackware packages. I guess everything has to be compiled from scratch, which I don’t want to do.

A Puppy Linux for- thing, built using woof-CE. Built from Slackware.

Overall, I’m not impressed.
