Flash Linux is a complete Operating System and user environment that you can carry in your pocket. The contents of this version are very similar to the previous version, however the packaging is very different and contains some nice new features.

New features

• The distribution is supplied as an ISO image (.bz2 for Linux users, .zip for Windows users)
  
• The ISO is actually a Live CD which contains a USB Key install program
• To install burn the ISO to a CD and reboot - this process works equally well for Windows and Linux users
  
• The Live CD can be used to boot the key on machines which don't support USB booting
• The Boot process supports /home on an alternative device (both for CD and Key boot)
• The key now runs off a JFFS2 filesystem while will extend the live of your USB key
