    Light Linux os

    Hello
    I hope I am in the right place.

    I am looking for a very simple and ultra light Linux OS.

    The use for the OS will be for an ipTV system.

    I found a lot of OS available but got a bit confused.

    Can anyone give some suggestions.

    Thanks
    Jeff

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Debian can easily be configured for light weight systems. I run Etch on a 64MB ARM system with plenty of RAM left over for applications. Ditto Gentoo.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

    AntiX is rally one light beast.

    But you may also want to give Mint a glance.

    If you go to distrowatch.com and do a search for mythtv, it will list a number of suitable
