In All seriousness:
If you check the Browse Linux 501's Website, you can't miss the notice by its creator that it is not to be used, When it was created it was a great idea: An operating system requiring very little of a computer's resources (Read-that-as-RAM) in order to surf the Web.
But today's Web is far different from that at the time Browser Linux was created. See this post:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 28#1011028. Indeed, many Websites will not even allow you to access them if you do not have a 'reasonably' current Web-browser.
So, what is to replace Browser-Linux. Without details as to EdTv's system it's hard to say. But, assuming the 'worst case scenario' his computer demands no-pae, and lacks the hardware to handle SSE2-encryption.
One of the Puppies which has the smallest 'foot-print' that I'm aware of is lina-1.2-non-pae. It's available from here:
http://smokey01.com/carolina/isos/non-pae/]. It doesn't, itself, have the libraries required by current Web-Browser/Web-sites. But, I wondered if it actually needed those if it could use Watchdog and/or Walter Dynes special builds of Palemoon. They can be found here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 676#973676. Note, if your computer does not have the hardware needed to support SSE2, you'll need a version with 'sse' in its title.
In addition to installing the latest version of Palemoon (not sse) from the above link, I also installed PupSysInfo from here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 411#579411
I'm currently posting from lina-1.2-non-pae using the above mentioned Palemoon. According to PupSysInfo, with only this webpage opened in Palemoon, my system was using 175 Mbs of RAM.
A couple of notes: The ISOs of all Carolinas and their predecessors, Salukis, include a adrv_xxx.sfs. The one in lina-1.2-non-pae is 313 Mb. These adrvs contain many applications which the creators considered useful and likely to be wanted by users. However, after downloading and unpacking the ISO, you can discard the adrv.sfs. It is not needed to boot to desktop, configure your system including wifi, to obtain applications from the Puppy's repository, to create your own adrv, to install other pets or load SFSes. With adrv.sfs removed, there are only --beside those 'core' applications-- three small 'user' applications: Leafpad, a screen-capture app, and a terminal. How you 'flesh-out' these Puppies is your business.
Although Palemoon is very useful with 'Today's' Web, some Websites will not allow access unless you have the 'latest' Google-Chrome, Firefox, or whatever microsoft calls its web-browser. Look for an Addon/Extension called* User-Agent or Agent-Spoofer or something like that. After you configure such Addon it tells websites that your using one of the 'permitted' browsers.
PS: The Extension which you can install in a
current Palemoon is called Eclipsed Moon. However, I don't know how to configure it to reflect a current firefox or Google-Chrome. Will post query in the Internet-Browser Section.
