“Dreamlinux has been requested a number of times since
the blog launched, and this week I’ve finally gotten around to
taking a peek at it. Dreamlinux is based on Debian and it comes
with Xfce or GNOME as the default desktop. I picked the GNOME
version for this quick look.

“Before I get into this quick look you should know that I was
not able to get Dreamlinux installed in a virtual machine. The OEM
installer seemed to go fine right up until the end, and then I got
an error message. Since Dreamlinux is a Live DVD distro (you can
run it without installing it), I decided to do the quick look
anyway based on the Live DVD desktop. I’ll talk more about my
install problems in the install section.”
