Over the weekend I decided to remove ubuntu and give the distro Crunchbang out. Of course, I decided to do this test on my netbook to see how well it ran and what not. So I started by using Unetbootin to make my flash drive bootable, used the application and loaded the #! (crunchbang) ISO onto the drive. After about 10 minutes of that completing, I partitioned 20gb for the OS. The install I have to admit was pretty smooth.

Well finally after I got in it, and managed to understand how the OS works differently from Ubuntu and other linux distro’s that I have used. I must say that this distro is very nice and runs extremely smooth on a netbook (so i went ahead and installed it on all my computers as well) .

I definitely recommend trying this distro out if you know a little bit about linux and just cant figure out which one you like the most. It is extremely easy to customize the OS as you can edit almost everything right at the click of your mouse, and not even having to know much about coding or anything. So yes, if you are a beginner linux user, this could be good for you as well.

Anyway, I tweaked the OS a bit and set it up to my liking, TINT2 has been edited, as well as the GTK themes, OB Menu’s and Conky setup.  If you have any questions or need help with the os, feel free to e-mail me.
