The Porteus Community is proud to announce the Porteus v2.0 Kiosk Edition.
Based on Slackware-14.0 and the addition of kernel 3.7.8 and
Firefox-19.0.2, this is a 32-bit system which is entirely locked down to
prevent tampering with any of the components (including the browser),
making this a perfect fit for kiosks and other publicly available web
terminals. The ISO is 37MB and contains only the libraries and utilities
which are required to launch Firefox. Additional software may bring along
security risks and affect stability in a restricted environment which is
why we have removed everything else from this edition.
