CRUX is a lightweight, i686-optimized Linux distribution targeted at experienced Linux users. The distribution is delivered by a tar.gz-based package system with BSD-style initscripts. CRUX also has a ports system to install and upgrade applications.
The name "CRUX" itself has no meaning. Per Lidén created it for "sounding cool", using an ending "-X" to evocate Linux and Unix.[1]
Current release is 2.4.
