LPS interests me, and from the very little I know about LPS and tiny core linux (TCL) they seem similar in that they have a file system blob that gets loaded into memory, so any malware can affect the files in memory, but if you reboot, you get a clean slate. The idea is if you want to do some (eg) banking, you reboot, do your banking on a known clean environment, then after you've finished, you reboot again. One of these days I will try TCL. TCL is run by the guy who was the work horse behind DSL. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
