Linux Testing (Arch and Slackware) 9/06-9/15

Arch based and Slackware based distros might be best for this project, but we'll compare our findings with Debian based.

• [ ] - Arch
• [x] - Absolute Linux (Slackware base)
• [x] - Slackware

Slackware:

• 1GB of swap with 7GB for storage. Installing X server, X applications, as well as XFCE
• Immediately filled up 8GB of space on my VM's hard drive. This is without any software installed. For this reason, and for other usability issues, Slackware is not ideal for this thin client

Absolute Linux: Simply won't install, neither persistently nor from disk.
