Porteus 2.1 RC2 發布，基于Slackware Linux的發行
Porteus是一份快捷的、便于攜帶的、模塊化的自啟動運行光盤及USB介質發行，它基于Slackware Linux。該發行始于一份Slax的社區改造版本（另一份基于Slackware的自啟動光盤，但已不再維護），以KDE 3作為i486版本的缺省桌面，并以裁減過的KDE 4作為x86_64版本的桌面環境。此外還提供輕量級的LXDE可作為替代桌面環境。
The second release candidate for Porteus 2.1, a Slackware-based mini-distribution with a choice of KDE, LXDE, MATE, Razor-qt and Xfce desktops, is ready for testing:
" The Porteus community is proud to announce Porteus 2.1 RC2 (Standard Desktop edition), as well as Porteus Kiosk edition 2.0.5. We've restructured our layout and users can now build their own custom Porteus</a>. We also offer standalone ISO image releases of five desktop environments (KDE 4, Razor-qt, Mate, Xfce and LXDE) for both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. We've also put together prepackaged modules (i486 and x86_64) for Google Chrome, Opera, LibreOffice, AbiWord, and printing and scanning software, which can be dropped in place to get out-of-the-box functionality.</span>"
