From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Gparted+Disks preinstalled distro recommendations (lemmy.kya.moe)

Basically the title. I need a distro for a live boot that have both Gparted and Gnome-Disks-Utility preinstalled.

I know Ubuntu have it, but I'm afraid they'll remove it in the future, because of the slimmer ISO.

Plus, I'll prefer smaller ISO file, since it used only for liveboot.

Thanks for every comment.

Are you just looking for a partition editing tool? Rescuezilla ships with gparted and some other backup/rescue tools and boots from live usb though gnome disks isnt included if i remember. Gparted distributes its own live boot utility. You could also look into making a persistent live installation of ubuntu or other distro and have those installed and theyll remain on the disk.

Edit: Rescuezilla comes with gnome Disks so this may be what youre looking for

I do use Rescuezilla, so I'll might use only that. Thanks :)
