Free kde based linux distribution software for linux

Core is a minimal distribution of the GNU/Linux operating system designed to be the basis for a complete system constructed by the end user. A fresh installation of Core will boot into a console and provide the user with the tools needed to download, compile and install other applications. Core contains nothing beyond what is required to perform these tasks.
Core is primarily designed for experienced Linux users, though it has found an audience with those looking to learn about the internals and operation of a Linux system. Core requires the user to manually configure, compile and install applications and expects the user to consult man pages and other documentation.
Installation:
These instructions are incomplete, but should be sufficient:
- Download, burn and boot the ISO.
- Partition, format and mount the hard drive.
- Run install_core [mount point of hard drive].
- Optional packages in /pkgs/optional can be installed with corepkg(8).
- Copy the kernel from /pkgs/kernel to /usr/src of the hard drive.
- Run chroot [mount point] bash -l to chroot into the new system.
- Compile and install the Linux kernel [be sure to run LILO].
- Review and modify the files under /etc.
- Reboot and start constructing the new system.

Red Hat Linux is probably the best-known Linux distribution. Red Hat Linux is well-supported by commercial software, and tends to be easy to install and have good hardware support out of the box.

Compaq has taken over the maintenance for Red Hat for their Alpha processor - theres a link to their Alpha Red Hat page below.

Red Hat 9 is the last version of Red Hat Linux per se, and Red Hat will stop supporting it soon. Instead they offer a commercial Linux distribution, "Red Hat Enterprise Edition", and a free distribution, "The Fedora Project".

ProMEPIS Linux is a linux distribution based on Debian that can be run from your CD drive without installation.

Where it shines is its easy, 100% "point and click" installation, and automatic detection of not only "normal" computer hardware but also popular webcams, the latest wireless network cards, "Winmodems" that usually work only with Windows, digital cameras, scanners, and other devices.

The difference between SimplyMEPIS and ProMEPIS is that SimplyMEPIS will continue to be a freely available desktop MEPIS bootable CD and ProMEPIS will designate an upcoming multi-CD packaged version of MEPIS.
