Wolvix Cub 1.1.0

Wolvix Cub is a small edition designed to fit and run on 256 MB USB Flash Drives. And if installed as a frugal system to a hard drive it will only consume about 240 MB of storage space. Wolvix Cub is perfect as a base for building your own customized Wolvix system combined with a special loop file (wolvixsave.xfs) to persist changes.

Despite its small size Wolvix Cub features a lot of useful tools and applications and thanks to LZMA compression. In the new Linux-Live scripts, Cub now features more software than the previous version. Included in Cub you'll find graphics, multimedia, network, and office applications that should fit the needs of most desktop users.
