[quote=Fred] A rolling release means a continuously developing software system, while most Linux distros have versions, that will be replaced by new versions regularly, mostly about twice a year. Rolling releases based on the Debian repositories on live CD or live DVD are Aptosid, which replaced the former Sidux, which is using Debian "Sid", look at http://distrowatch.com/index.php?distribution=aptosid an upcoming new release has been announced:http://aptosid.com and the new Linux Mint Debian, based on Debian "Testing", at http://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=66 "Sid" and "Testing" are the branches of Debian containing more recent software developments, which are not in the so-called "Stable" branch of Debian yet. Debian is the base of many other distros like Ubuntu or Mint. Security updates in Debian are generally not made by installing newer software versions, but by fixing the bugs in the existing older versions.This does also include browsers like iceweasel and iceape (renamed from Firefox and Seamonkey) or iceape (Thunderbird). Fixing the bugs of the older versions instead of using new versions is supposed to increase the stability of the Linux system. May be worth to have a look at, if you want something a bit different from the usual path. Fred[/quote]
