Pale Moon — Linux — Virtualbox — Mac

Unread post by kurmujjun » 2017-11-08, 10:59

Good morning, afternoon or evening.

I want to run the latest version of Pale Moon in Linux in Virtualbox (or possibly some other virtual machine) in Mac 10.7 on a Mac mini.

I want the Linux OS to be very compact and fast. I don't care what other applications come with it, since I probably won't be using them.

Can anyone recommend a lightweight version of Linux that would be suitable for this?

Here is an overview about lightweight linux distributions:

I use Pale Moon with Lubuntu on daily basis - it works fine for me. But there are more lightweight distributions like Xubuntu.

You may also try Puppy Linux - here is a post with Pale Moon:
