UW-Linux – a GNU/Linux distribution based Slackware. It is a live-cd so you can boot and run it from the cdrom drive.
It’s kind of S-T-D distribution, with a lot of admin stuff.
But it could be used as a multimedia distribution (mplayer, xmms etc. included).
The distribution is targeted to both advanced network security users and beginners who are just getting to know Linux. Although it includes applications such as media players, it was not designed to be used for everyday tasks. Distribution can boot, among others from CF cards instead of a hard disk.
The project founder is Jakub Mrugalski.
