Feather Linux, created by Robert Sullivan, is a Knoppix-based operating system which currently fits in under 128 MB (while older versions were made to fit within 64 MB). It boots from either a CD or a USB Flash Drive, into a Fluxbox desktop environment. It has a wide range of desktop and rescue software, and can load entirely into RAM (as space permits) or be installed to a hard drive. Feather Linux contains many GTK+ applications, such as AbiWord and Pidgin. Feather linux has tried to include software that people would frequently be using on their desktop [ [http://featherlinux.berlios.de/about.htm "Feather Linux - About." Feather Linux. 15 May 2008 http://featherlinux.berlios.de/about.htm.] ] .

With its most recent release being on 2005-07-04, Feather Linux is now dormant. This distribution is partly inspired by Damn Small Linux, though not based upon it, and both projects share some common goals.
