  I'll check out these distro's in the near future. I at least got a laugh out of what I saw on alpine's homepage: "Simple. Small. Secure." right next to "ISO 298MB." I know I'm getting old when people think a 298MB system is simple, small, or secure. Lol...

    The Alpine Linux docker image is only a couple megabytes[0]. There are quite a few people (including myself) using it as a light-weight OS for their containers. [0]: https://github.com/gliderlabs/docker-alpine https://github.com/gliderlabs/docker-alpine
